Configuring the File Integrity Monitor task

To configure the settings of the File Integrity Monitor task using the Administration Plug-in:

1. Expand the Managed devices node in the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree.
2. Select the administration group for which you want to configure application settings.
3. Perform one of the following actions in the details pane of the selected administration group:
   • To configure application settings for a group of protected devices, select the Policies tab and open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
   • To configure the settings of a task or application for an individual protected device, select the Devices tab and go to local task settings or application settings.
4. In the System inspection section, in the File Integrity Monitor block, click the Settings button.

   The File Integrity Monitor window opens.

5. On the File operations monitoring settings tab, configure the following settings:
   • Clear or select the Log information about file operations that appear during the monitoring interruption period check box.

     The check box enables or disables monitoring of the file operations specified in the File Integrity Monitor task settings when the task is not running for any reason (removal of a hard disk, task stopped by user, software error).

     If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows will record events in all monitoring scopes when the File Integrity Monitor task is not running.

     If the check box is cleared, the application will not log file operations in monitoring scopes when the task is not running.

     The check box is selected by default.

   • Clear or select the Block attempts to compromise the USN log check box.

     The check box enables or disables protection of the USN log.

     If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows will block attempts to delete the USN log or to compromise the USN log's content.

     If the check box is cleared, the application will not monitor changes to the USN log.

     The check box is selected by default.

6. Add the file operations monitoring rules that will determine what the task does.
7. On the Task management tab, configure the settings for scheduled task start.
8. Click the OK button to save the changes.

Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows applies the new settings to the running task. Information about the date and time of settings modification are saved in the system audit log.
