Event data is saved in binary form in the folder C:\ProgramData\Kaspersky Lab\Endpoint Agent\protected\kata in open non-encrypted form.

By default, only users with System and Administrator permissions have read-access to files when Self-Defense is enabled. When Self-Defense is disabled, users with System and Administrator permissions can also delete the files, modify their contents, and modify the access rights to them. The Kaspersky Endpoint Agent application does not manage access permissions to this folder or any files in it. It is the system administrator who determines access permissions.
