Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2017

About remote management of computer protection

If a computer has Kaspersky Anti-Virus installed, you can manage protection of this computer remotely. Computer protection can be managed remotely via My Kaspersky portal. To manage computer protection remotely, register on My Kaspersky portal, sign in to your My Kaspersky account, and go to Devices section.

My Kaspersky portal lets you accomplish the following computer security tasks:

  • View the list of computer security problems and fix them remotely
  • Scan the computer for viruses and other threats
  • Update databases and application modules
  • Configure Kaspersky Anti-Virus components

If a computer scan is started from My Kaspersky portal, Kaspersky Anti-Virus processes objects that are detected automatically without your involvement. On detecting a virus or other threat, Kaspersky Anti-Virus attempts to perform disinfection without rebooting the computer. If disinfection without restarting the computer is impossible, the list of computer security problems on My Kaspersky portal shows a message to the effect that the computer needs restarting to perform disinfection.

If the list of detected objects on My Kaspersky portal includes more than 10 items, they are grouped. In this case, the detected objects can be processed via the portal only together without the ability to examine each object separately. To view separately objects in this case, you are advised to use the interface of the application installed on the computer.

Detailed information on using the portal is available in My Kaspersky portal help.
