The Kaspersky Security functionality described in this section is available only if the application is installed on a virtual machine with a Windows desktop operating system.
Web Control allows controlling actions by LAN users, by restricting or blocking access to web resources. A web resource is an individual web page or several web pages, or a website or several websites that have a common feature.
Web Control provides the following features:
Traffic is controlled by restricting or blocking downloads of multimedia files, or by restricting or blocking access to web resources that are unrelated to users' job responsibilities.
To save traffic and reduce potential losses from the misuse of employee time, you can restrict or block access to specified categories of web resources (for example, block access to sites that belong to the "News media" category). For a more detailed description of content categories, see the Knowledge Base.
When using Kaspersky Security Center, personal and group settings of access to web resources are available.
All restrictions and blocks that are applied to access to web resources are implemented as web resource access rules.
