Managing tasks in Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console
Kaspersky Security Center uses tasks to manage the operation of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes installed on computers.
You can create the following tasks to manage Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Linux Nodes via Kaspersky Security Center:
Local tasks that are configured for an individual computer.
Group tasks that are configured for computers within administration groups.
Tasks for a set of computers that do not belong to administration groups.
Such tasks for the sets of computers apply only to the computers that are specified in the task settings. If new computers are added to the set of computers for which the task is created, this task is not applied to the new computers. To apply the task to these computers, you must create a new task or edit the settings of the existing task.
You can create the following types of tasks:
Virus Scan. During the task execution, the application scans the computer areas that are specified in the task settings for viruses and other malware.
Add Key. During the task execution, the application adds a key, including a reserve one, to activate the application.

Critical Areas Scan. During the task execution, the application scans boot sectors, startup objects, process memory, and kernel memory.
Container Scan. During the task execution, the application scans containers and images for viruses and other malware.
System Integrity Monitoring. During the task execution, the application determines changes of each object by comparing the current state of the monitored object to its original state, which was previously established as a baseline.
The Update task cannot be paused or resumed, it can only be started or stopped.
Create new tasks.
Edit task settings.
If the user account which is used to access the Administration Server does not have permissions to edit the settings of certain functional scopes, the settings of these functional scopes are not available for editing.
