Management plug-in
Management plug-in
Kaspersky applications are managed through Administration Console by using a dedicated component named management plug-in. Each Kaspersky application that can be managed through Kaspersky Security Center includes a management plug-in.
Using the application management plug-in, you can perform the following actions in Administration Console:
- Creating and editing application policies and settings, as well as the settings of application tasks.
- Obtaining information about application tasks, application events, as well as application operation statistics received from client devices.
You can download management plug-ins from the Kaspersky Technical Support webpage.
