  • Enabled means TLS encryption is used, but certificates are not verified.
  • With verification means TLS encryption is used with verification of the certificate signed with the KUMA root certificate. The root certificate and key of KUMA are created automatically during application installation and are stored on the KUMA Core server in the /opt/kaspersky/kuma/core/certificates/ directory.
  • Custom CA means TLS encryption is used with verification that the certificate was signed by a Certificate Authority. If you select this value, in the Custom CA drop-down list, specify a secret with a certificate signed by a certification authority. You can select an existing secret or create a new secret.

    How to create a certificate signed by a Certificate Authority?

    To use KUMA certificates on third-party devices, you must change the certificate file extension from CERT to CRT. Otherwise, you can get the x509: certificate signed by unknown authority error.

  • Custom PFX means TLS encryption with a PFX secret. You must generate a PFX certificate with a private key in PKCS#12 container format in an external Certificate Authority, export the PFX certificate from the key store, and upload the PFX certificate to the KUMA web interface as a PFX secret. If you select this value, in the PFX secret drop-down list, specify a PFX secret with a certificate signed by a certification authority. You can select an existing PFX secret or create a new PFX secret. To create a new PFX secret, select Create new.
