After you complete the scenario in this section, your customers' devices will be protected.
Getting started scenario
The scenario proceeds in stages:
To start using Kaspersky Next, you need an account on Kaspersky Business Hub.
To create an account:
After you create the account, you can create your first workspace. We recommend that you first create one test workspace, connect your own devices to it, and then test any modifications to the settings, noting the results.
Please see the recommendations on creating workspaces for your customers.
To create a company workspace:
After you create a company workspace, you must perform initial setup of Kaspersky Next. The initial setup begins automatically when you start Kaspersky Next Management Console for the first time. The Welcome to Kaspersky Next window is displayed. Follow the onscreen instructions.
When initial setup is complete, Kaspersky Next Management Console is ready to use.
You use two basic methods to deploy Kaspersky applications on devices that you want to protect:
After the security application is installed on a device, the device is assigned the Default security profile. This is the security profile with the default settings that are recommended by Kaspersky experts.
In the Security management → Security profiles section, you can create different security profiles. Every new security profile holds the default settings until you modify them. You can also copy existing security profiles.
Each security profile holds four tabs for the respective platforms: Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS with iPadOS.
When you assign a security profile to a user, the security profile is applied to all devices owned by the user. Only the Default security profile can be applied to devices without owners.
After you have created a workspace, you are granted a 30-day trial license that is embedded in your workspace. To continue using Kaspersky Next after the trial license expires, you must purchase a commercial license or a subscription. Click Information panel → License, and then enter the activation code.
The activation code will be distributed automatically to the security applications, which may take 15 minutes, as the applications attempt to sync with the workspace every 15 minutes.
