For the operation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android components that use Kaspersky Security Network, the app sends requests to cloud services. Requests contain the data as described in the "Data provision" section.

If the use of Kaspersky Security Network is disabled on the device, the Cloud Protection, Web Protection, and App Control components are disabled automatically.

To enable or disable the use of Kaspersky Security Network:

  1. Open the window with the settings of the management policy for mobile devices on which Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android is installed.
  2. In the policy Properties window, select the Additional section.
  3. In the Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) settings section, configure the settings for using Kaspersky Security Network:
    • Select the Use Kaspersky Security Network check box for operation of the following components: Anti-Virus (Cloud Protection), Web Protection, and App Control (App categories).
    • Select the Allow statistics to be sent to KSN check box to submit data to Kaspersky. This data will help the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android app more quickly respond to threats, improve the performance of protection components, and decrease the likelihood of false alarms.
  4. Click the Apply button to save the changes you have made.

Mobile device settings are configured after the next device synchronization with the Kaspersky Security Center. Once the policy has been applied, the components that use Kaspersky Security Network are disabled and component settings become unavailable.
