Monitoring

  • Reports. View events that occurred during operation of the application, individual components and tasks.
  • Backup. View a list of saved copies of infected files that the application has deleted.
  • Threat detection technologies. View information about threat detection technologies and the number of threats detected by these technologies.
  • Kaspersky Security Network. Status of the connection between Kaspersky Endpoint Security and Kaspersky Security Network, and global KSN statistics. Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) is an infrastructure of cloud services providing access to the online Kaspersky Knowledge Base that contains information about the reputation of files, web resources, and software. The use of data from Kaspersky Security Network ensures faster responses by Kaspersky Endpoint Security to new threats, improves the performance of some protection components, and reduces the likelihood of false positives. If you are participating in Kaspersky Security Network, KSN services provide Kaspersky Endpoint Security with information about the category and reputation of scanned files, as well as information about the reputation of scanned web addresses.
  • Application Activity Monitor. View information about the operation of installed applications. Application Activity Monitor keeps track of the file, registry, and operating system events associated with an application.
  • Network Monitor. View information about network activity of the computer in real time.
  • Encryption Monitor. Monitors the disk encryption or decryption process in real time. Encryption Monitor is available if the Kaspersky Disk Encryption component or BitLocker Drive Encryption component is installed.
