The Use iChecker technology, Use iSwift technology, Use heuristic analyzer, and Check Microsoft signature in files security settings are not included in the settings for the preset security levels. If the Use iChecker technology, Use iSwift technology, Use heuristic analyzer, and Check Microsoft signature in files settings change, the preset security level you have selected will not change.
You can apply one of three predefined security levels to a node selected in the device's file resource tree: Maximum performance, Recommended, Maximum protection, or Notify only. Each of these levels contains its own predefined security settings (see the table below).
Maximum performance
The Maximum performance security level is recommended if your network has additional protected device security measures, for example, firewalls and existing security policies, beyond using Kaspersky Industrial CyberSecurity for Nodes on protected devices.
Recommended
The Recommended security level ensures the best combination of protection and performance impact on devices. Kaspersky experts recommend this level as adequate to protect devices on most corporate networks. The Recommended security level is set by default.
Maximum protection
The Maximum protection security level is recommended if your organization's network has elevated device security requirements.
Notify only
The Notify only security level is recommended if there are potentially many infected computers in the corporate network and blocking them could significantly disrupt the operation of the organization.
