Enabling encryption

You can enable encryption in several security profiles simultaneously and define identical encryption settings for them.

The actual encryption of protected devices starts only after you complete the procedure described in this section.

To enable encryption of devices:

1. Open Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud Management Console.
2. Select the Security management → Encryption section.

   The displayed Data Encryption window allows you to enable and disable encryption in security profiles, and to go to the list of reports.

3. Click the Configure button.

   The Configure Data Encryption wizard starts. Proceed through the wizard by using the Next button.

4. At the Select security profile step of the wizard, select the check boxes next to the names of the security profiles in which you want to enable encryption.
5. At the Configure settings step of the wizard, define the encryption settings.
6. At the Check details step of the wizard, check the list of security profiles in which you want to enable encryption, and the encryption settings that you defined.
7. Click the Start button.

Encryption is enabled in the selected security profiles with the defined settings.

Later, if necessary, you can edit encryption settings in each security profile separately.

The encryption and decryption of devices may take a long time. You can use the Encryption status of devices report to see the current encryption status.
