Application Self-Defense

Kaspersky Security defends the protected virtual machine with the Light Agent for Windows component against malicious applications, including malware that attempts to block the operation of Kaspersky Security or remove it from the protected virtual machine.

The stability of the security system on the protected virtual machine with the Light Agent for Windows component is ensured by the Self-Defense and remote control defense mechanisms provided by Kaspersky Security.

The Self-Defense mechanism prevents alteration or deletion of application files on the hard drive, memory processes, and entries in the system registry.

Remote Control Defense blocks all attempts from a remote device to control application services.
