Behavior Detection

The Behavior Detection component receives data on the actions of applications on your computer and provides this information to other protection components, to improve their performance. The Behavior Detection component utilizes Behavior Stream Signatures (BSS) for applications. If application activity matches a behavior stream signature, Kaspersky Endpoint Security performs the selected responsive action. The Kaspersky Endpoint Security functionality is based on behavior stream signatures and provides proactive defense for the computer.

The Behavior Detection component additionally monitors network ports for application processes that may threaten the security of the computer. The application gets information about such processes with anti-virus databases.
