Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes stores files in the Backup folder in encrypted form to shield the protected device against possible harmful effects.
Any file can be restored from Backup.
A file may need to be restored in the following cases:
The original infected file contained important information and Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes failed to keep its integrity so, as a result, the information in the file became unavailable.
You consider the file harmless to the protected device and want to use it. If you do not want Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes to consider this file infected, during subsequent scans you can exclude it from processing in the Real-Time File Protection task and On-Demand Scan tasks.
Restoring files from Backup may lead to an infection of the protected device.
When you restore a file you can select where it will be saved: the original location (default), the special folder for restored objects on the protected device, or a custom folder on the protected device where the Application Console is installed.
By default when Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes restores a file, it makes a copy of it in Backup. The file copy can be deleted from Backup after it is restored.
In the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree, select the Additional → Storages folder.
Go to the Backup folder.
Do one of the following:
To restore one object, select Restore in the context menu of the name of the object.
To restore multiple objects, select the objects that you want to restore using the CTRL or SHIFT key, right-click one of the selected objects, and select Restore from the context menu.
The object will be restored to the original folder.
In the Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes Console tree, select Storages → Backup.
Perform one of the following actions in the results pane of the Backup node:
To restore one object, select Restore from the context menu of the object that you want to restore.
To restore multiple objects, select the objects you wish to restore using the CTRL or SHIFT key, right-click one of the selected objects, and select Restore from the context menu.
In the Restore object window, specify the folder in which the object being restored will be saved for each selected object.
The name of the object is displayed in the Object field in the upper part of the window. If you selected several objects, the name of the first object in the list of selected objects will be displayed.
Do one of the following:
To restore an object to its original location, select Restore to the source folder.
To restore an object to the folder specified as the location for restored objects during application installation, select Restore to the default folder for restoration.
To save an object to a different folder on the protected device where the Application Console is installed, select Restore to a folder on your local computer and then select the required folder or specify the path to it.
If you do not want to save a copy of the file in the Backup folder after it is restored, select the Remove objects from storage after they are restored check box (by default, this check box is cleared).
To apply the specified restoration conditions to the rest of the selected objects, check the Apply to all selected objects box.
Click OK.
Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes will start restoring the first of the selected objects.
If an object with this name already exists in the specified location, the Object with this name already exists window opens.
Select one of the following Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes actions:
Replace, to replace the existing object with the restored object.
Rename, to save the restored object under a different name. In the entry field, enter the new restored object's filename and full path.
Rename by adding suffix, to rename the restored object by adding a suffix to its filename. Enter the suffix in the entry field.
If you selected several objects to be restored, then select the Apply to all selected objects check box to apply the selected action (Replace or Rename) to the rest of the selected objects. If you selected Rename, the Apply to all selected objects check box will be unavailable.
Click OK.
The object will be restored. Information about the restoration operation will be recorded in the system audit log.
If you did not select Apply to all selected objects in the Restore object window, the Restore object window may open again. Use this window to specify the location where the next selected object will be saved.
