About predefined security levels

One of the following predefined security levels for the nodes selected either in the protected device's file resource tree or file resource list can be applied: Maximum performance, Recommended, Maximum protection, and Inform. Each of these levels contains its own predefined set of security settings (see the table below).

Maximum performance

The Maximum performance security level is recommended if your network has additional protected device security measures, for example, firewalls and existing security policies, beyond using Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security on protected devices and workstations.

Recommended

The Recommended security level ensures the best combination of protection and performance impact on devices. Kaspersky experts recommend this level as adequate to protect devices on most corporate networks. The Recommended security level is set by default.

Maximum protection

The Maximum protection security level is recommended if your organization's network has elevated device security requirements.

Inform

The Inform security level is recommended if there are potentially many infected computers in the corporate network and blocking them could significantly disrupt the operation of the organization.
