Contents and storage of dump files

Dump files are generated if the application fails. These dump files include all the data that the working memory of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes processes contained at the time the dump file was created. If necessary, you can disable the creation of dump files.

Dump files are stored on the computer as long as the application is in use, and are deleted permanently when the application is removed. Dump files are not sent to Kaspersky automatically.

Dump files may contain personal data. It is recommended to protect information from unauthorized access before sending it to Kaspersky.

Dump files are stored in the /var/opt/kaspersky/kics/common/dumps and /var/opt/kaspersky/kics/common/dumps-user directories. Root privileges are required to access dump files.

To disable creation of dump files:

1. Stop Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes.
2. Open the /var/opt/kaspersky/kics/common/kics.ini file for editing.
3. Add the following parameter to the [General] section:

   CoreDumps=no

4. Start Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes.
