Getting started with Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud

After you complete the scenario in this section, your customers' devices will be protected.

Getting started scenario

The scenario proceeds in stages:

1. Create an account

   To start using Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud, you need an account on Kaspersky Business Hub.

   To create an account:

   1. Open your browser and enter the following URL: https://cloud.kaspersky.com.
   2. Click the Create an account button.
   3. Follow the onscreen instructions.
2. Create a workspace

   After you create the account, you can create your first workspace. We recommend that you first create one test workspace, connect your own devices to it, and then test any modifications to the settings, noting the results.

   Please see the recommendations on creating workspaces for your customers.

   To create a company workspace:

   1. Open your browser and enter the following URL: https://cloud.kaspersky.com.
   2. Click the Sign in button.
   3. Follow the onscreen instructions.
3. Perform initial setup of Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud

   After you create a company workspace, you must perform initial setup of Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud. The initial setup begins automatically when you start Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud Management Console for the first time. The Welcome to Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud window is displayed. Follow the onscreen instructions.

   When initial setup is complete, Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud Management Console is ready to use.

4. Deploy security applications on customers' devices

   You use two basic methods to deploy Kaspersky applications on devices that you want to protect:

   • Use your customer's Active Directory infrastructure to deploy security applications on multiple devices running Windows.
   • Use Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud to install security applications on the devices.
5. Manage protection

   After the security application is installed on a device, the device is assigned the Default security profile. This is the security profile with the default settings that are recommended by Kaspersky experts.

   In the Security management → Security profiles section, you can create different security profiles. Every new security profile holds the default settings until you modify them. You can also copy existing security profiles.

   Each security profile holds four tabs for the respective platforms: Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS with iPadOS.

   When you assign a security profile to a user, the security profile is applied to all devices owned by the user. Only the Default security profile can be applied to devices without owners.

6. Specify licenses

   After you have created a workspace, you are granted a 30-day trial license that is embedded in your workspace. To continue using Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud after the trial license expires, you must purchase a commercial license or a subscription. Click Information panel → License, and then enter the activation code.

   The activation code will be distributed automatically to the security applications, which may take 15 minutes, as the applications attempt to sync with the workspace every 15 minutes.
