Connecting mobile devices to Kaspersky Security Center

To manage a mobile device by using Kaspersky Security Center Web Console or Cloud Console, the device must be connected to Kaspersky Security Center. You can view the list of mobile devices connected to Kaspersky Security Center on the Devices > Mobile > Devices tab of Web Console or Cloud Console.

Before connecting an iOS device, send the address of Kaspersky Security Center to the device user to improve connection security. The user will see this address during app installation and can cancel the connection if the displayed address doesn't match the address you sent.

To connect a mobile device to Kaspersky Security Center:

  1. Start the Mobile Device Connection Wizard:
    • In the main window of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console or Cloud Console, select Devices > Mobile > Devices, and then click Add.
    • In the main window of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console or Cloud Console, select Users & roles > Users. Click the name of the user or the user group to whom you want to send the link for connecting a mobile device, and then select Devices. Click Add mobile device. In this case, skip step 3.

    Proceed through the Wizard by using the Next button.

  2. Select the operating system of the devices that you want to add:
    • Android
    • iOS and iPadOS
  3. Select users and user groups to whom you want to send the link for connecting a mobile device.
  4. Select email addresses where to send the link:
    • All email addresses
    • Main email address
    • Alternative email address
    • Another email address

      If you select this option, specify the email address below.

  5. The link summary is displayed.

    Make sure that all parameters of the link are correct, and then click Send.

  6. A window opens with a confirmation that the link for adding a mobile device has been sent.

    Click OK to finish the Wizard.

When the user installs the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android app or the Kaspersky Security for iOS app, the user's device will be displayed on the Devices > Mobile > Devices tab of Web Console or Cloud Console.

If you edit the Name and Description fields on the General tab of the device properties, the changes will not be displayed in the list of mobile devices connected to Kaspersky Security Center due to technical limitations.
