Scenario: Manual migration from Kaspersky Security Center to Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud

If you want to stop using Kaspersky Security Center in your infrastructure and switch to Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud, you only need to remotely uninstall Network Agent from your users' devices and remotely install Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows that you download from Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud. Protection will be enabled automatically on the devices, according to the security profiles that are configured in Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud.

After you complete the scenario in this section, your users' devices will be moved from Kaspersky Security Center to Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud.
