ID 58282

The protection status indicator, which determines the color of the main application window, informs you about computer protection problems. Depending on the status of computer protection, the color of the main application window can change. If Kaspersky Endpoint Security detects any security threats, a message about threats appears in the main application window and the main application window changes color.

The color of the main application window can change as follows:

  • Green. Your computer is appropriately protected.

    A green main application window signifies that anti-malware databases are up to date and all application components have been configured as recommended by Kaspersky. No malicious objects have been detected, or any detected malicious objects have been neutralized.

  • Yellow. The level of computer protection is reduced.

    A yellow main application window signifies that Kaspersky Endpoint Security is aware of a problem. Such problems include minor deviations from the recommended protection settings or slightly outdated application databases.

  • Red. Your computer is at risk of infection.

    A red main application window signifies that there are dangerous problems that may lead to computer infection and data loss. For example, the anti-malware application databases are extremely out of date, the application is not activated, or malicious objects have been detected.

    We recommend that you fix any problems and deal with the security threats as soon as possible.
