    Description

    Automatically detect scalability settings

    Kaspersky Security for Windows Server automatically controls the number of processes used.

    This is the default value.

    Set the number of working processes manually

    Kaspersky Security for Windows Server controls the number of active working processes according to the values specified.

    Maximum number of active processes

    Maximum number of processes that Kaspersky Security for Windows Server uses. The entry field is available if the Set the number of working processes manually option is selected.

    Number of processes for real-time protection

    Maximum number of processes that are used by the Real-Time Server Protection task components. The entry field is available if the Set the number of working processes manually option is selected.

    Display System Tray Icon in the taskbar

    Configure whether the System Tray Icon will be displayed in the notification area.

    Restore file attributes after scanning

    When Kaspersky Security for Windows Server performs on-demand scan tasks, the time when each scanned file was last accessed is updated. After the scan, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server resets the time when the file was last accessed to the initial value.

    This behavior can affect the work of backup systems by causing creation of backup copies for files that haven’t been changed. This can also cause false detections in file change tracking applications.

    By default, this option is enabled.

    Limit CPU usage for scanning threads

    Kaspersky Security for Windows Server limits its use of the protected device CPU during on-demand scan tasks to the value specified in the Upper limit (in percents) field.

    Enabling of this option can negatively affect the performance of Kaspersky Security for Windows Server.

    By default, this option is disabled.

    Upper limit (in percentages)

    Maximum allowable value of CPU utilization by Kaspersky Security for Windows Server.

    The entry field is available if the Limit CPU usage for scanning threads option is selected.

    Folder for temporary files created during scanning

    Folder into which Kaspersky Security for Windows Server needs to unpack archive files during scanning.

    By default, the C:\Windows\Temp folder is used.

    HSM system settings
