After a map is created, the map uses the default background image. You can change the background image to any image you want. For example, you can use the image of a geographic map of any territory for the main map, and you can upload equipment deployment schematics of workshops and work areas for site maps.

For a map background, you can use images uploaded from JPG or PNG files. The maximum size of an uploaded file is 50 MB. The minimum size of an image in an uploaded file is 600x600 pixels. After a new image is uploaded, the old image is deleted and the positions of all objects on the map are cleared.

The background image on maps can be changed only by Kaspersky Security Center users who have been granted access permissions corresponding to the Administrator role in Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks.

To change the background image for the main map:

  1. Log in to the Kaspersky Security Center Web Console using an account that has Administrator privileges in Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Networks.
  2. Select KICS for NetworksMap.
  3. Click the Replace image button.

    You will see a window prompting you to drag the image file or select a file.

  4. Use any convenient method to upload the file.
