Adding an account of an internal user

To add a new internal user account to Kaspersky Security Center:

1. In the console tree, open the User accounts folder.

   The User accounts folder is a subfolder of the Advanced folder by default.

2. In the workspace, click the Add user button.
3. In the New user window that opens, specify the settings of the new user account:
   • A user name ()

     Please be careful when entering the user name. You will not be able to change it after saving the changes.

   • Description
   • Full name
   • Main email
   • Main phone
   • Password for the user connection to Kaspersky Security Center

     The password must comply with the following rules:

     • The password must be 8 to 256 characters long.
     • The password must contain characters from at least three of the groups listed below:
       • Uppercase letters (A-Z)
       • Lowercase letters (a-z)
       • Numbers (0-9)
       • Special characters (@ # $ % ^ & * - _ ! + = [ ] { } | : ' , . ? / \ ` ~ " ( ) ;)
     • The password must not contain any whitespaces, Unicode characters, or the combination of "." and "@", when "." is placed before "@".

     To see the entered password, click and hold the Show button.

     The number of attempts for entering the password is limited. By default, the maximum number of allowed password entry attempts is 10. You can change the allowed number of attempts to enter a password, as described in "Changing the number of allowed password entry attempts".

     If the user enters an invalid password the specified number of times, the user account is blocked for one hour. In the list of user accounts, the user icon () of a blocked account is dimmed (unavailable). You can unblock the user account only by changing the password.

   • If necessary, select the Disable account check box to prohibit the user from connecting to the application. You can disable an account, for example, if you want to create it beforehand but activate it later.
   • Select the Request the password when account settings are modified check box if you want to enable an additional option to protect a user account from unauthorized modification. If this option is enabled, modifying user account settings requires authorization of the user with the Modify object ACLs right of the General features: User permissions functional area.
4. Click OK.

The newly created user account is displayed in the workspace of the User accounts folder.
