Using heuristic analysis in the operation of the Web Threat Protection component
To increase the effectiveness of protection, you can use heuristic analysis. During heuristic analysis, Kaspersky Endpoint Security analyzes the activity of applications in the operating system. Heuristic analysis can detect threats for which there are currently no records in the Kaspersky Endpoint Security databases.
To configure the use of heuristic analysis:
In the main application window, click the Settings button.
In the application settings window, select Essential Threat Protection → Web Threat Protection.
In the Security level section, click the Settings button.
The Web Threat Protection window opens.
Select the General tab.
If you want the Web Threat Protection component to use heuristic analysis to scan web traffic for viruses and other malware, in the Scan methods section, select the Heuristic analysis for detecting viruses check box and use the slider to set the heuristic analysis level: Light scan, Medium scan, or Deep scan.
If you want the Web Threat Protection component to use heuristic analysis to scan web pages for phishing links, in the Anti-Phishing Settings section, select the Heuristic analysis for detecting phishing links check box.
