Configuring URL and web processing

To check web resources for phishing threats and identify web addresses designated as malicious according to the anti-virus database and URL reputation from KSN:

1. Open the Task settings window.
2. In the Task mode section of the General tab, select and configure the task operation mode.
3. On the URL and web processing tab:
   • Clear or select the Use malicious URL database to scan web links check box.
     

     If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server performs signature analysis on each URL.

     If the check box is cleared, the anti-virus database is not used to scan URLs.

     The check box is selected by default.

   • Clear or select the Use anti-phishing database to scan web pages check box.
     

     If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server checks each URL against the anti-phishing database. Anti-phishing scanning is based on heuristic analysis.

     If the check box is cleared, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server does not detect phishing attacks.

     The check box is selected by default.

     Note that when you configure anti-phishing scanning of URLs, anti-phishing is automatically applied to emails.

   • Clear or select the Use Trusted Zone check box.
     

     This check box enables / disables use of the Trusted Zone for a task.

     If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server adds file operations of trusted processes to the scan exclusions configured in the task settings.

     If the check box is cleared, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server disregards the file operations of trusted processes when forming the protection scope for the task.

     The check box is selected by default.

   • Clear or select the Use KSN for protection check box.
     

     This check box enables or disables the use of KSN services.

     If the check box is selected, the application uses Kaspersky Security Network data to ensure that the application responds more quickly to new threats and to reduce the likelihood of false positives.

     If the check box is cleared, the task does not use KSN services.

     The check box is selected by default.

     The KSN reputation for a URL is available only if all of the following conditions are met:

     • The Use KSN for protection check box is selected in the Traffic Security settings.
     • The KSN Statement is accepted. The Send data about scanned URLs check box is selected.
     • The KSN Usage task is started.
4. Click OK.

The URL and web processing configuration is saved.
