Configuring scalability, interface, and scan settings in Kaspersky Security Center
To configure scalability settings and the application interface:
Expand the Managed devices node in the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree.
Select the administration group for which you want to configure application settings.
Perform one of the following actions in the details pane of the selected administration group:
To configure application settings for a group of protected devices, select the Policies tab and open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
To configure the application for a single protected device, select the Devices tab and open the Application settings window.
If an active Kaspersky Security Center policy is applied to a device and blocks changes to application settings, then these settings cannot be edited in the Application settings window.
In the Application settings section, in the Scalability, interface and scan settings subsection, click Settings.
In the Advanced application settings window on the General tab, configure the following settings:
In the Scalability settings section, configure the settings that define the number of processes used by Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes:
Maximum number of processes that Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes uses. The entry field is available if the Set the number of working processes manually option is selected.
Maximum number of processes that are used by the Real-Time Computer Protection task components. The entry field is available if the Set the number of working processes manually option is selected.
Maximum number of processes used by the On-Demand Scan component when running On-Demand Scan tasks in background mode. The entry field is available if the Set the number of working processes manually option is selected.
In the Interaction with user section, configure whether the System Tray Icon will be displayed in the notification area by clearing or selecting the Display System Tray Icon in the taskbar check box.
On the Scan settings tab, configure the following settings:
When Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes performs on-demand scan tasks, the time when each scanned file was last accessed is updated. After the scan, Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes resets the time when the file was last accessed to the initial value.
This behavior can affect the work of backup systems by causing creation of backup copies for files that haven’t been changed. This can also cause false detections in file change tracking applications.
Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes limits its use of the protected device CPU during on-demand scan tasks to the value specified in the Upper limit (per cent) field.
Enabling of this option can negatively affect the performance of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes.
