Configuring connection protection on a Light Agent
You can configure connection protection in a Light Agent in the Light Agent policy using Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console or Kaspersky Security Center Web Console.
In the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree, in the Managed devices folder, select the administration group containing the virtual machine with the Light Agent whose settings you want to configure.
In the workspace, select the Policies tab.
Select a Kaspersky Endpoint Security policy in the list of policies and double-click to open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
In the policy properties window, select the Connection protection section in the list on the left.
Use encryption to protect the connection between Light Agents and Protection Servers.
If the check box is selected, a secure connection is established between the Light Agent, which is managed by policy, and the Protection Server on the SVM that the Light Agent is connecting to. A Light Agent for which connection protection is enabled can only connect to an SVM on which connection protection is enabled or an unprotected connection to the Protection Server is allowed.
If the check box is cleared, an unprotected connection is established between the Light Agent and the Protection Server on the SVM that the Light Agent is connecting to.
In the main window of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console, select Devices → Policies and policy profiles.
A list of policies opens.
Select the administration group containing the virtual machine with the Light Agent whose settings you want to configure. To do so, click the link in the Current path field located above the list of policies and policy profiles, and select an administration group in the window that opens.
The list displays only the policies configured for the selected administration group.
Click on the name of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux policy in the list.
In the policy properties window that opens, select the Application settings tab and go to Light Agent mode → Connection protection.
Use encryption to protect the connection between Light Agents and Protection Servers.
If the check box is selected, a secure connection is established between the Light Agent, which is managed by policy, and the Protection Server on the SVM that the Light Agent is connecting to. A Light Agent for which connection protection is enabled can only connect to an SVM on which connection protection is enabled or an unprotected connection to the Protection Server is allowed.
If the check box is cleared, an unprotected connection is established between the Light Agent and the Protection Server on the SVM that the Light Agent is connecting to.
