To enable or disable web address scanning:

  1. In the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console, open the properties of the policy whose scope includes the relevant virtual machines:
    1. In the console tree, select the folder or administration group in which the policy was created.
    2. In the workspace, select the Policies tab.
    3. Select a policy in the list of policies and double-click the policy to open the Properties: <Policy name> window.
  2. In the policy properties window, in the Network threat protection section, select the Web Addresses Scan subsection.
  3. Do one of the following:
    • Select the Scan web addresses check box if you want Kaspersky Security to check if the web addresses requested by a user or application belong to the web address categories selected for detection. By default, Kaspersky Security scans web addresses to check if they are malicious, phishing, or advertising web addresses. You can select the web address categories for detection in the window that opens by clicking the Settings button.

      When Kaspersky Security detects a web address that belongs to one or more of the selected web address categories, it blocks access to this web address by default. You can change this action, and create a list of web addresses to which Kaspersky Security will not block access if it detects a threat.

    • Clear the Scan web addresses check box if you want to disable web addresses scans.
  4. In the Properties: <Policy name> window, click OK.
