Kaspersky Security contains a number of advanced functions. Advanced functions are meant to keep the application up to date, expand its functionality, and assist the user with operating it.
Backup. If the application detects an infected file while running a virus scan of the operating system of a protected virtual machine, it blocks this file, removes it from its original folder, saves its copy in Backup, and attempts to disinfect the file. Backup copies of files are stored in a special format and do not pose a threat. If file disinfection succeeds, the status of the backup copy of the file changes to Disinfected. You can then restore the file from its disinfected backup copy to its original folder.
Database update. Kaspersky Security downloads updated databases and application modules that keep the operating system of the protected virtual machine secure against new viruses and other malware.
Reports. In the course of its operation, the application keeps a report on each application component and task. The report contains a list of events that occur during operation of the application, and all operations that the application performs. In case of an incident, you can send reports to Kaspersky Lab, where Technical Support will look into the issue in more detail.
Notifications. The application uses notifications to inform the user about the current protection status of the protected virtual machine's operating system. The application can display notifications on the screen or send them by email.
Kaspersky Security Network. Participation in Kaspersky Security Network ensures better protection for the operating system of the protected virtual machine through the real-time collection of information about the reputation of files, web resources, and software obtained from users worldwide.
Licensing. When used under a premium license, all functions, database and application module updates, and detailed information about the application are available.
