The following conditions must be met to enable Web Protection:

  • Kaspersky Endpoint Security must be enabled as an Accessibility Features service.
  • The Statement regarding data processing for the purpose of using Web Protection (Web Protection Statement) should be accepted. Kaspersky Endpoint Security uses Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) to scan websites. The Web Protection Statement contains the terms of data exchange with KSN.

    Your administrator can accept the Web Protection Statement for you in Kaspersky Security Center. In this case, you are not required to take any action.

    If your administrator has not accepted the Web Protection Statement and has sent you the request to do this, you must read and accept the Web Protection Statement in the app settings.

    If your administrator has not accepted the Web Protection Statement, Web Protection is not available.
