Compatibility with Citrix App Layering technology

You can use Kaspersky Security to protect virtual machines in the infrastructure that uses the Citrix App Layering (formerly UniDesk) technology.

If you plan to use the Full User Layer to save the state of temporary virtual machines, perform the following actions before installing the application on the virtual machine template:

1. Make the following changes to the operating system registry on the Application Layer:
   1. In the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Unifltr registry key, create a new key of the multi-string parameter type with the name AlwaysOnBoot:
      • C:\ProgramData\KasperskyLab\
      • C:\ProgramData\Kaspersky Lab\
      • C:\Program Files(x86)\Kaspersky Lab\
   2. In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Unifltr registry key, create a new key of the DWORD type with the name MiniFilterBypass and a value of 1.
2. Restart the virtual machine.

To install the application on the virtual machines in the infrastructure that uses Citrix App Layering technology, perform the following actions:

1. Install Kaspersky Security Center Network Agent and Light Agent for Windows on a virtual machine template on the Application Layer.
2. Create a multi-layer virtual machine image.
3. Deploy the created image to hypervisors that support Citrix App Layering.
4. Configure creation of temporary virtual machines from the created image.
