About data provision

Data transferred to third parties

When using the mobile device management functionality of the Software, for the purpose of timely delivery of commands to devices running the Android operating system through the push notification mechanism the Google Firebase Cloud Messaging service is used. If the User has configured the usage of the Google Firebase Cloud Messaging service, the User accepts to provide the following information to the Google Firebase Cloud Messaging service in automatic mode: installation IDs of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android applications to which push notifications must be sent.

To block exchange of information with the Google Firebase Cloud Messaging service, the User must roll back the usage settings of the Google Firebase Cloud Messaging service to their factory values.

When using the mobile device management functionality of the Software, for the purpose of timely delivery of commands to devices running the iOS operating system through the push notification mechanism the Apple Push Notification Service (APNs) is used. If the User has installed an APNs certificate on an iOS MDM Server, created an iOS MDM profile with a collection of settings for connection of iOS mobile devices to the Software, and installed this profile on mobile devices, the User agrees to provide the following information to APNs in automatic mode:

• Token—Push token of the device. The server uses this token when sending push notifications to the device.
• PushMagic—String that must be included in the push notification. The string value is generated by the device.

Data processed locally

Kaspersky Security Center is designed for centralized execution of basic administration and maintenance tasks on an organization's network. Kaspersky Security Center provides the administrator with access to detailed information about the organization's network security level; Kaspersky Security Center lets the administrator configure all the components of protection based on Kaspersky applications. Kaspersky Security Center performs the following main functions:

• Detecting devices and their users on the organization's network
• Creating a hierarchy of administration groups for device management
• Installing Kaspersky applications on devices
• Managing the settings and tasks of installed applications
• Managing the updates for Kaspersky and third-party applications, and finding and fixing vulnerabilities
• Activating Kaspersky applications on devices
• Managing user accounts
• Viewing information about the operation of Kaspersky applications on devices
• Viewing reports

To perform its main functions Kaspersky Security Center can receive, store, and process the following information:

• Information about the devices on the organization's network received as a result of device discovery on the Active Directory network or Windows network, or through scanning of IP intervals. Administration Server gets data independently or receives data from Network Agent.
