Configuring the interface

Expand all | Collapse all

You can configure the Kaspersky Security Center interface:

• Show and hide objects in the console tree, workspace, and properties windows of objects (folders, sections), depending on the features being used.
• Show and hide elements of the main window (for example, console tree or standard menus such as Actions and View).

To configure the Kaspersky Security Center interface in accordance with the currently used set of features:

1. In the console tree, select the Administration Server node.
2. On the menu bar of the main application window, select View → Configure interface.
3. In the Configure interface window that opens, configure the display of interface elements using the following check boxes:
   • Display Vulnerability and patch management

     If this option is enabled, the Remote installation folder displays the Deploy device images subfolder, and the Repositories folder displays the Hardware subfolder.

     This option is disabled by default if the quick start wizard has not finished. This option is enabled by default after the quick start wizard has finished.

     If this option is disabled, the menu items Create RDP session and Windows Desktop Sharing will not be available even if you have a Systems management license.

   • Display data encryption and protection

     If this option is enabled, the console tree displays the Data encryption and protection folder.

     By default, this option is enabled.

   • Display endpoint control settings

     If this option is enabled, the following subsections are displayed in the Security Controls section of the properties window of the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows policy:

     • Application Control
     • Device Control
     • Web Control
     • Adaptive Anomaly Control

     If this option is disabled, these subsections are not displayed in the Security Controls section.

     By default, this option is enabled.

   • Display Mobile Device Management

     If this option is enabled, the Mobile Device Management feature is available. After you restart the application, the console tree displays the Mobile devices folder.

     By default, this option is enabled.

   • Display secondary Administration Servers

     If the check box is selected, the console tree displays the nodes of secondary and virtual Administration Servers within administration groups. The features connected with secondary and virtual Administration Servers—for example, creation of tasks for remote installation of applications on secondary Administration Servers—are available at that.

     By default, this check box is cleared.

   • Display security settings sections

     If this option is enabled, the Security section is displayed in the properties window of Administration Server, administration groups and other objects. This option allows you to give users and user groups custom permissions for working with objects.

     By default, this option is disabled.

4. Click OK.

To apply some of the changes, you have to close the main application window and then open it again.

To configure the display of elements in the main application window:

1. On the menu bar of the main application window, select View → Configure.
2. In the Configure view window that opens, configure the display of main window elements by using check boxes.
3. Click OK.
