Managing the application via Kaspersky Security Center

Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 5.0 Agentless is controlled via Kaspersky Security Center, a centralized system that enables remote administration of Kaspersky Lab applications. In the case of Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 5.0 Agentless, a client device of Kaspersky Security Center is an SVM. Protected virtual machines are not considered client devices from the perspective of Kaspersky Security Center because the Kaspersky Security Center Network Agent is not installed on them.

SVMs deployed on VMware ESXi hypervisors managed by a single VMware vCenter Server are combined into a KSC cluster within Kaspersky Security Center (Kaspersky Security Center cluster) (see the figure below).

The KSC cluster is assigned the name VMware vCenter '<name>' (<IP address>) Agentless, where:

VMware inventory objects that are part of this VMware vCenter Server form the protected infrastructure of the KSC cluster.

Kaspersky Security is managed through Kaspersky Security Center by using policies and tasks:

More detailed information about policies and tasks can be found in the Kaspersky Security Center documentation.
