About security levels in the RPC Network Storage Protection task

June 10, 2022

ID 147268

In the RPC Network Storage Protection task, you can apply any of the following preset security levels to every protected storage system: Maximum performance, Recommended, or Maximum protection. Each of these levels contains its own pre-defined set of security settings (see the table below). You can also specify the values of the security settings manually; in this case, the security level of the network attached storage changes to Custom.

Maximum performance

The Maximum performance security level is recommended if, apart from using Kaspersky Security for Windows Server on servers and workstations, there are additional computer security measures on your network, for example, firewalls are set up, network users comply with existing security policies.

Recommended

The Recommended security level ensures an optimum combination of protection quality and degree of impact on the performance of protected servers. This level is recommended by Kaspersky experts as sufficient for protection of file servers on most corporate networks. The Recommended security level is set by default.

Maximum Protection

The Maximum protection security level is recommended if you have higher requirements for computer security on your organization's network.
