Viewing the protection status of a device and application settings

You can view information about the protection status of a device, as well as the status of Kaspersky Endpoint Security and its components on the device.

You can get information about the protection status of a device in the following ways:

• In the Web Console or in the Administration Console, using the statuses of the client devices (OK, Critical, Warning). The device on which Kaspersky Security Center Network Agent is installed is a client device for Kaspersky Security Center. The status of a client device can change to Critical or Warning for the following reasons:
  • In accordance with the rules defined in Kaspersky Security Center. For example, the status changes if a security application is not installed on the device, a virus scan has not been performed in a long time, application databases are outdated, the license has expired, or the application is unstable. For more details on the reasons for changing statuses and configuring conditions for assigning statuses, refer to the Kaspersky Security Center Help system.
  • Kaspersky Security Center receives the device status from the managed application, i.e., from Kaspersky Endpoint Security.

    Receiving device status from a managed application must be enabled in Kaspersky Security Center in the lists of conditions for assigning the Critical and Warning statuses. Conditions for assigning device statuses are configured in the properties window of an administration group.

  For more details on client device statuses, refer to the Kaspersky Security Center Help system.

• In the Web Console or in the Administration Console, using the statuses of functional components of Kaspersky Endpoint Security on the device. In the properties of Kaspersky Endpoint Security installed on the device, a list of the functional components of the application is displayed. For each component, its status is displayed.
• In the command line, using the command kesl-control --app-info. The command displays information about the operation of the application and the status of functional components and tasks of the application.
