Integration between Kaspersky Security Center Web Console and other Kaspersky solutions

In order to configure interaction between Kaspersky Security Center Linux and another Kaspersky application or solution, for example, Kaspersky Managed Detection and Response (also referred to as MDR), you have to establish a background connection between Kaspersky Security Center Web Console and Administration Server. You can establish this connection only if your account has the Modify object ACLs right of the General features: User permissions functional area.

You can configure interaction only between Kaspersky Managed Detection and Response and Windows-based version of Kaspersky Security Center Linux.

To establish a background connection:

1. In the main menu, go to Settings → Integration.
2. In the Integration section, switch the toggle button for establishing a background connection to the position: Establish a background connection for integration Enabled.
3. In the opened The service that establishes a background connection will be started on the Kaspersky Security Center Web Console Server section, click the OK button.

The background connection between Kaspersky Security Center Web Console and Administration Server is established. Administration Server creates an account for the background connection and this account is used as a service account to maintain interaction between Kaspersky Security Center Linux and another Kaspersky application or solution. The name of this service account contains the NWCSvcUser prefix. Administration Server automatically changes the password of the service account once every 30 days, for security reasons. You cannot delete the service account manually. Administration Server deletes this account automatically when you disable a cross-service connection. Administration Server creates a single service account for each Kaspersky Security Center Web Console and Administration Console and assigns all the service accounts to the security group with the name ServiceNwcGroup. Administration Server creates this security group automatically during the Kaspersky Security Center Linux installation process. You cannot delete this security group manually.
