About the license key used for activating update functionality

A license key (hereinafter also referred to as simply the "key") is a sequence of bits that you can apply to activate and then use the functionality for updating databases and application modules in accordance with the terms of the End User License Agreement. The license key is generated by Kaspersky experts.

You can add a license key to the application by using a license key file. After you add a license key to the application, the license key is displayed in the application interface as a unique alphanumeric sequence.

Kaspersky can block a license key over violations of the End User License Agreement. If a license key has been blocked, you must add a different license key to use the functionality for updating databases and application modules.
