Scanner
You can start the following types of scans:
Kaspersky app scans the device's entire file system. A full scan helps protect your personal data and money, it detects and eliminates threats on your device (in installed apps and installation packages). A full scan also detects adware and apps that intruders may use to harm your device or exploit your personal data.
Kaspersky app only scans installed apps.
Due to technical limitations, the app cannot scan archives that are 4 GB or larger. The app skips these archives when scanning. The app does not notify you if such archives are skipped.
Automatic Anti-virus
Automatic Anti-Virus provides anti-virus protection. The component detects and neutralizes threats, adware, and apps that intruders may use to harm your device or exploit your personal data.
Safe Browsing
Safe Browsing checks websites before opening them for you. It blocks malicious websites, which try to distribute malware, and phishing websites, which try to steal your confidential data and gain access to your financial accounts.
Safe Messaging
The Safe Messaging feature will check SMS text messages and messages you receive via WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram and Google Hangouts for phishing links.
Where Is My Device
Where Is My Device protects your data against unauthorized access and helps locate your device if it is lost or stolen. You can send commands to your device remotely via My Kaspersky.
App Lock
The App Lock feature protects your private data. You can lock apps like Facebook, WhatsApp, Photos, Messages, Snapchat, Instagram, Viber, Gmail, Settings, and any other apps to prevent others from accessing these apps. When you open an app protected by App Lock, Kaspersky app prompts you to unlock access to the app using your secret code, unlock pattern or fingerprint.
Call Filter
Call Filter lets you block unwanted calls, for example, calls from telemarketers. The app filters calls by using a contact denylist that you create. Your number appears busy to unwanted contacts.
My Apps
The My Apps feature allows you to optimize storage space on your device and review permissions you have granted to apps installed on your device. Find out which apps you do not use and delete them. Learn what are the potential risks of the granted permissions.
Data Leak Checker
Data Leak Checker checks your accounts for data leaks and alerts you when information about you becomes publicly accessible. It also advices what to do when your data leaked.
In the free version, limited functionality is available: the app only checks your My Kaspersky account for data leaks. Full feature functionality is available in the Personal and Family package of Kaspersky Security Cloud.
Weak Settings Scan
The Weak Settings Scan searches for weak settings of the operating system. If it detects weak settings in the operating system, it prompts you to fix them in order to restore the security of the operating system.
Devices on My Network
The Devices in my network feature shows devices that are connected to your home Wi-Fi network. Using this feature, you can prevent unauthorized devices from connecting to your network and check the protection state of your devices connected to the network. This feature is available in the Personal and Family package of Kaspersky Security Cloud.
