Using Firebase Cloud Messaging

To ensure timely delivery of commands to KES devices managed by the Android operating system, Kaspersky Security Center uses the mechanism of push notifications. Push notifications are exchanged between KES devices and Administration Server through Firebase Cloud Messaging (hereinafter referred to as FCM). In Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console, you can specify the Firebase Cloud Messaging settings to connect KES devices to the service.

To retrieve the settings of Firebase Cloud Messaging, you must have a Google account.

To enable the use of FCM:

  1. In Administration Console, select the Mobile Device Management node, and the Mobile devices folder.
  2. In the context menu of the Mobile devices folder, select Properties.
  3. In the folder properties, select the Firebase Cloud Messaging settings section.
  4. In the Firebase project number field, specify the FCM Sender ID.
  5. In the Private key file (in JSON format) field, select the private key file.

At the next synchronization with Administration Server, KES devices managed by Android operating systems will be connected to Firebase Cloud Messaging.

You can edit the Firebase Cloud Messaging settings by clicking the Reset settings button.
