This step is displayed only if you selected to use Kaspersky Endpoint Security in standalone mode at the first step. If Kaspersky Endpoint Security is used in Light Agent mode, Kaspersky Endpoint Security receives updates of databases and application modules for the Light Agent from the Protection Server.

At this step, you can run the application database update task on the client device. The application databases contain descriptions of the threat signatures and methods of countering them. The application uses these records when searching and neutralizing threats. Kaspersky virus analysts regularly add new records about threats.

If you do not want to start to download the application databases, enter no.

If you want to start the database update task on the device, enter yes.

By default, the application suggests yes.

If yes is selected, the application will be automatically restarted after the databases are updated.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security protects the device only after the application databases are updated.

You can start the Update task without using the initial configuration script.
