About Cloud Sandbox

This functionality is not supported by Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux 12.1.

Cloud Sandbox is a cloud technology that allows detecting complex threats on users' computers. Kaspersky Endpoint Security automatically sends files that require scanning to Cloud Sandbox for analysis. Cloud Sandbox executes these files in an isolated environment (sandbox) to detect malicious activity and then decides on the reputation of these files. Data about these files is then sent to KSN.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows and Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Mac allow enabling a separate counter for threats detected using Cloud Sandbox. You can use this counter to collect statistics when analyzing detected threats.

To use Cloud Sandbox technology, the following conditions must be met:

• For devices running Windows:
  • Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows 11.10.0 or later is installed on the computer.
  • Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows plug-in 11.10.0 or later is installed in Kaspersky Security Center.
  • KSN support is enabled in Kaspersky Endpoint Security.
  • To view the reports on alerts detected by Cloud Sandbox technology (in the Cloud Sandbox column of the Report on threats), Kaspersky Security Center Windows 14 or later, Kaspersky Security Center Linux 15.1 or later, or Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console is required.
• For devices running macOS:
  • Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Mac 12.1 or later is installed on the computer.
  • Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Mac plug-in 12.1 or later is installed in Kaspersky Security Center.
  • KSN support is enabled in Kaspersky Endpoint Security.
  • To view the reports on alerts detected by Cloud Sandbox technology (in the Cloud Sandbox column of the Report on threats), Kaspersky Security Center Windows 14.2 or later, Kaspersky Security Center Linux 15.1 or later, or Kaspersky Security Center Cloud Console is required.

For more information about enabling Cloud Sandbox, manually starting a file scan that uses this technology, and restrictions on the use of Cloud Sandbox technology, refer to the Cloud Sandbox section of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows Help or Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Mac Help.
