About the key file

Key file is a file with the .key extension that you receive from Kaspersky. Key files are intended to add a license key for activating the application.

You receive the key file at the email address that you provided when purchasing Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity Endpoint Detection and Response or when ordering a trial version of Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity Endpoint Detection and Response.

You do not need to connect to Kaspersky activation servers in order to activate the application with a key file.

You can restore a key file if it has been accidentally deleted. You may need a key file to register a Kaspersky CompanyAccount, for example.

To restore the key file, perform one of the following actions:

• Contact the license distributor.
• Get the key file on Kaspersky website based on the available activation code.
