Managing Quarantine

April 25, 2024

ID 214779

Quarantine is a special local storage on the computer. The user can quarantine files that the user considers dangerous for the computer. Quarantined files are stored in an encrypted state and do not threaten the security of the device. Kaspersky Endpoint Security uses Quarantine only when working with Kaspersky Sandbox and Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response solutions. In other cases Kaspersky Endpoint Security places the relevant file in Backup. For details on managing Quarantine as part of solutions, please refer to the Kaspersky Sandbox Help, Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum Help, and Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert Help.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security uses the system account (SYSTEM) to quarantine files.

You can configure quarantine settings only in the Kaspersky Security Center Console. You can also use Kaspersky Security Center Console to manage quarantined objects (restore, delete, add, etc). Locally, on the computer, you can only restore the object using the command line.
