Proxy server settings

You can configure proxy server settings if the users of the client devices use a proxy server to connect to the internet. Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes may use a proxy server to connect to Kaspersky servers, for example, when updating application modules and databases or when communicating with Kaspersky Security Network and Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response (KATA).
