The Kaspersky announcements section (MONITORING & REPORTING → Kaspersky announcements) keeps you informed by providing information related to your version of Kaspersky Security Center and the managed applications installed on the managed devices. Kaspersky Security Center periodically updates the information in the section by removing outdated announcements and adding new information.
Kaspersky Security Center shows only those Kaspersky announcements that relate to the currently connected Administration Server and the Kaspersky applications installed on the managed devices of this Administration Server. The announcements are shown individually for any type of Administration Server—primary, secondary, or virtual.
Administration Server must have an internet connection to receive Kaspersky announcements.
The announcements are intended to keep the Kaspersky applications installed in your network up-to-date and fully functional. The announcements may include information about critical updates for Kaspersky applications, fixes for found vulnerabilities, and ways to fix other issues in Kaspersky applications. By default, the Kaspersky announcements are enabled. If you do not want to receive the announcements, you can disable this feature.
To show you the information that corresponds to your network protection configuration, Kaspersky Security Center sends data to Kaspersky cloud servers and receives only those announcements that relate to the Kaspersky applications installed in your network. The data set that can be sent to the servers is described in the End User License Agreement that you accept when you install Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server.
New information is divided into the following categories, according to importance:
When new information appears in the Kaspersky announcements section, Kaspersky Security Center 13 Web Console displays a notification label that corresponds to the importance level of the announcements. You can click the label to view this announcement in the Kaspersky announcements section.
You can specify the Kaspersky announcements settings, including the announcement categories that you want to view and where to display the notification label. If you do not want to receive announcements, you can disable this feature.
