Enabling and disabling Web Control

By default, Web Control is enabled. You can disable Web Control, if necessary.

To enable or disable Web Control in Kaspersky Security Center:

  1. Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
  2. In the Managed devices folder of the console tree, open the folder with the name of the administration group to which the relevant protected virtual machines belong.
  3. In the workspace, select the Policies tab.
  4. Select a Light Agent for Windows policy in the list of policies and open the Properties: <Policy name> by double-clicking.
  5. In the policy properties window, select the Web Control section in the list on the left.
  6. In the right part of the window, do one of the following:
    • If you want to enable Web Control component, select the Web Control check box.
    • If you want to disable Web Control component, clear the Web Control check box.
  7. Click the Apply button.

In the local interface of Light Agent for Windows, you can enable or disable a component in two ways:

To enable or disable Web Control on the Protection and Control tab of the main application window:

  1. On the protected virtual machine, open the main application window.
  2. Select the Protection and Control tab.
  3. Open the Endpoint control section.
  4. Open the context menu of the Web Control item and perform one of the following actions:
    • To enable Web Control, select Enable in the menu.
    • To disable Web Control, select Disable in the menu.

    If this menu item is unavailable, this means that you cannot enable or disable this component because the policy-defined setting is applied to protected virtual machines within the administration group.

To enable or disable Web Control from the application settings window:

  1. On the protected virtual machine, open the application settings window.
  2. In the left part of the window, in the Endpoint control section, select Web Control.

    In the right part of the window, the Web Control component’s settings are displayed.

    If component settings are unavailable, this means that you cannot enable or disable this component because the policy-defined setting is applied to protected virtual machines within the administration group.

  3. Do one of the following:
    • If you want to enable Web Control component, select the Enable Web Control check box.
    • If you want to disable Web Control component, clear the Enable Web Control check box.
  4. To save changes, click the Save button.
