Silent mode

An Android device user can disable all notifications from Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android in the settings on the notification bar. If notifications are disabled, the user does not monitor the operation of the app and may not see important information (for example, real-time information about threats). In this case, to find out the app operating status, the user must open Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android.

If you do not want the mobile device user to be distracted by Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android notifications, you can disable certain notifications.

The Kaspersky Endpoint Security uses the following tools to display the device protection status:

• Protection status notification. This notification is pinned to the notification bar. The protection status notification cannot be removed. It displays the device protection status (for example, ) and number of issues, if any. You can tap the device protection status and see the list of issues in the app.
• App notifications. These notifications inform the device user about the application (for example, threat detection).
• Pop-up messages. Pop-up messages require action from the device user (for example, what action to take when a threat is detected).

The silent mode settings are sent to the mobile device together with the other settings in the configuration file. Set the DisableNotification parameter to True.

If the device is connected to Kaspersky Security Center, you can enable silent mode only in the group policy.

To enable the app's silent mode via the VMware Workspace ONE Console:

1. In the console, select Apps & Books → Application → Native.

   The app catalog opens.

2. Select the Public section.
3. Select the Kaspersky Endpoint Security app.

   The app properties window opens.

4. Select the Assignment section.
5. In the window that opens, click the Assign button.

   The list of devices that the app is assigned to opens.

6. Click the Edit button.
7. In the window that opens, click Configure.

   The app configuration opens. You can use the tool tip to read about each app parameter.

8. Disable app notifications using the corresponding setting.
9. Save the changes.

As a result, the app will only show the protection status notification. Other notifications and pop-ups will be disabled.
