Advanced disinfection technology
To work with active threats, Kaspersky Endpoint Security uses the Advanced Disinfection technology. Advanced Disinfection works differently for workstations and servers. You can configure advanced disinfection in Malware Scan task settings and in application settings.
If Kaspersky Endpoint Security cannot halt the execution of a piece of malware, you can use the Advanced Disinfection technology. For computers under policy, Advanced Disinfection is disabled by default because this technology uses a significant amount of computing resources. For computers not under policy, Advanced Disinfection is enabled by default.
Advanced Disinfection works differently for workstations and servers. To use the technology on servers, you must enable immediate advanced disinfection in the properties of the Malware Scan task. This prerequisite is not necessary to use the technology on workstations.
