Managing protection of Kaspersky Next XDR Expert
Selecting protection software of Kaspersky Next XDR Expert
Depending on the type of the Kaspersky Next XDR Expert deployment and the general protection strategy, select the application to protect devices with Kaspersky Next XDR Expert deployed and the administrator host.
If you deploy Kaspersky Next XDR Expert on dedicated devices, we recommend selecting the Kaspersky Endpoint Security application to protect devices with Kaspersky Next XDR Expert deployed and the administrator host. This allows applying all available technologies to protect these devices, including behavioral analysis modules.

- Recommended security products. If Kaspersky Next XDR Expert is deployed on devices with other software, we recommend taking into account the recommendations from that software vendor on the compatibility of security products (there may already be recommendations for selecting a security solution, and you may need to configure the trusted zone).
