Whenever a user attempts to start an executable file, this file is automatically added to the Application Control's list. You can create an inventory task to obtain a list of executable files stored on managed devices. To inventory executable files, you must create an inventory task.
For Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux, the feature of inventorying executable files is available since no earlier that version 11.2.
You can reduce load on the database while obtaining a list of executable files. To do this, we recommend that you run an inventory task on reference devices on which a standard set of software is installed.
To create an inventory task for executable files on client devices:
The list of tasks is displayed.
The New task wizard starts. Follow the steps of the wizard.
After the New task wizard has finished, the Inventory task is created and configured. If you want, you can change the settings for the created task. The newly created task is displayed in the list of tasks.
For a detailed description of the inventory task, see the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux Help and the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows Help.
After the Inventory task is performed, the list of executable files stored on managed devices is formed, and you can view the list.
During inventory, executable files in the following formats are detected: MZ, COM, PE, NE, SYS, CMD, BAT, PS1, JS, VBS, REG, MSI, CPL, DLL, JAR, and HTML.
To view the list of executable files stored on client devices:
In the main menu, go to Operations → Third-party applications → Executable files.
The page displays the list of executable files stored on client devices.
