When using Kaspersky Security in multitenancy mode, a single instance of Kaspersky Security installed in the infrastructure of the cybersecurity service provider (hereinafter also referred to as the "service provider") allows protection of isolated virtual infrastructures of tenant organizations or isolated units of one tenant organization (hereinafter also referred to as "tenants").
The procedures for deploying and using Kaspersky Security in multitenancy mode are automated using the Integration Server REST API.
The following Kaspersky Security multitenancy usage scenarios are supported:
If the tenant protection infrastructure is already deployed in your infrastructure without using the Integration Server REST API, you can register existing tenants and their virtual machines and receive tenant protection reports.
