Deploying security applications by using Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud

This section describes how you can manually deploy security applications on the devices of your customers.

You have two options:

Adding user accounts

This method works as follows:

  1. In the Users section, add the user accounts of the contact persons for your customers, and then send them an email message with an automatically generated link to download a security application.
  2. The user (contact person) receives the message, clicks the link in the message, and then installs the security applications on the devices of the customer. When the user clicks the link, Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud recognizes the device operating system, thus ensuring that the proper software is downloaded.

    Using a received email message, the user can connect any number of devices running Windows or macOS, but only a single mobile device running Android or iOS. If the user needs to connect multiple mobile devices, send the user multiple messages based on the number of devices.

  3. After the security applications are installed on all of the required devices, do the following:
    1. Go to the Users section and assign the user as the owner of these devices.

      This will allow you to configure protection of each customer's devices individually.

    2. Go to the Distribution packages section and reconfigure the distribution packages of the security applications.

      As a result, the old download links become invalid, which prevents the installation of security applications on additional devices.

  4. If you manage more than 20 customers within one workspace and you want to use identical protection settings for the devices of those customers, create a group and move the required users to that group.

Downloading distribution packages

This method works as follows:

  1. In the Distribution packages section, download the distribution packages of the security applications.
  2. If necessary, send these distribution packages to your customers.
  3. Either you or the customers install the received distribution packages on their devices.
  4. In the Users section, you add the user accounts of your customer's employees and you do not send them an email message containing instructions.
  5. If necessary, grant administrator rights to the required users. For example, this may be necessary if customers want to have access to their workspaces.
  6. Assign the users as the owners of the devices.
  7. If necessary, create groups and move the required users to those groups. For example, you may need groups in the following cases:
    • You want to use different protection settings for the devices of employees who work in different departments.
    • You want to use identical protection settings for the devices of more than 20 employees within one workspace.
