Creating a company workspace

Immediately after the account is created, you can create a company workspace for Kaspersky Next on Kaspersky Business Hub.

Before you start, make sure that you know the following:

• The name of the company in which you intend to use the software solution.
• The country in which the company is located. If the company is located in Canada, you must also know the province.
• The total number of company computers and mobile devices that you want to protect.

To create a company workspace on Kaspersky Business Hub:

1. In your browser, go to Kaspersky Business Hub.
2. Click the Sign in button on the start page of Kaspersky Business Hub.
3. Enter the email address and password that you specified when you created the account, and then click the Sign in button.

   The portal displays a page prompting you to accept the Terms of Use of Kaspersky Business Hub.

4. Carefully read the Terms of Use of Kaspersky Business Hub.
5. If you accept the Terms of Use, select the check box under the text of the Terms of Use, and then click the I accept the terms button.

   If you do not accept the Terms of Use, do not use Kaspersky Business Hub.

   If you click the I decline button, you will not be able to continue working with Kaspersky Business Hub and use the software solutions accessible on it.

   After you click the I accept the terms button, the country selection page is displayed.

6. Do any of the following:
   • Select a country from the drop-down list, and then click the Confirm button.

     This information is optional. It is requested only once. The information is required to display license prices in the correct currency. If you do not specify a country, license prices will be displayed in the default currency. You can change the country by contacting Technical Support.

   • If you prefer not to specify a country, click the Skip button.

   The Create a Workspace Wizard starts. Proceed through the Wizard by using the Next button.

7. On the Step 01: Select a software solution page of the Wizard, select the Kaspersky software solution that you plan to use:
   • Kaspersky Next, if you want to protect the computers and mobile devices of company employees.
   • Kaspersky Security for Microsoft Office 365, if you want to protect the Exchange Online mailboxes, OneDrive files, and SharePoint Online sites of company employees.

   If you opt to try the free version of a software solution on any Kaspersky promo page, you are redirected to the Create a Workspace Wizard in which this step of the software solution selection is skipped.

8. On the Step 02: Terms of Use of Kaspersky Next page of the Wizard, do the following:
   1. Carefully read the Agreement, the Privacy Policy, and the Data Processing Agreement for the selected software solution.
   2. If you agree to the terms and conditions of the Agreement and the Data Processing Agreement, and if you are aware and agree that your data will be handled and transmitted (including to third countries) as described in the Privacy Policy, and you confirm that you have fully read and understand the Privacy Policy, select the check boxes next to the three listed documents, and then click the I accept the terms button.

      If you do not agree to the terms and conditions, do not use the selected Kaspersky software solution.

      If you click the I decline button, the workspace creation process on Kaspersky Business Hub will be terminated.

9. On the Step 03: Workspace information page of the Wizard, specify the main details of your company:
   1. Fill in the following required fields:
      • Name of your company. Specify the name of the company in which you intend to use the software solution. You can enter a string up to 255 characters long. The string can contain upper- and lowercase characters, numerals, whitespaces, dots, commas, minuses, dashes, and underscores. The specified company name will be displayed on Kaspersky Business Hub and in Kaspersky Next Management Console.
      • Country. In the drop-down list, select the country in which your company is located. If you select Canada, also specify the province in the State drop-down list that appears below this field.
      • Number of devices. Enter the total number of company computers and mobile devices that you want to protect.

        In the entry field, you can enter a number from 5 to 999. In some regions, the maximum available number of devices may be different.

   2. Fill in the Additional company description field (optional).

      It may be useful if you have more than one workspace on Kaspersky Business Hub. You can enter a string up to 255 characters long. The string can contain upper- and lowercase characters, numerals, whitespaces, dots, commas, minuses, dashes, and underscores.

10. On the Step 04: Additional information page of the Wizard, enter your contact details.

    This page of the Wizard is displayed only once, when you create your first workspace.

    1. Fill in the following fields:
       • Your first name.
       • Your last name.
       • Your phone number.
       • Your email address. By default, this field displays the email address specified in the settings of your account on Kaspersky Business Hub. You can specify a different email address.
       • Postal code (only for Austria, Ireland, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany, and the United Kingdom).
    2. The other fields of the form on this page of the Wizard are filled automatically with the details that you specified when you entered the company information. Change them, if necessary.
       • Company name.
       • Country.
       • State (only for Canada).
       • Number of devices.
    3. If you agree to provide your contact details for participation in surveys and to receive information about Kaspersky applications, select the check box next to the appropriate text.

       Providing your contact information is optional. Kaspersky receives your data only if you select this check box.

       This check box is cleared by default.

       After you select this check box, Kaspersky Business Hub displays reCAPTCHA. Follow the onscreen instructions.

    Creation of a company workspace on Kaspersky Business Hub is complete.

    Kaspersky Business Hub displays a page prompting you to wait until the company workspace is ready.

11. In the workspace creation message, click the link to go to the list of companies.
12. Click Go to workspace.

After several minutes, when the workspace is ready, Management Console will open. You can also open Management Console by clicking the link in the email message sent from Kaspersky. You receive this message at the email address that you specified when you created an account on Kaspersky Business Hub.

After Management Console opens, you must perform the initial setup of Kaspersky Next.
