KASPERSKY SECURITY CENTER WEBCONSOLE


Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console is a web application designed to manage the anti-virus protection status of
corporate networks that are protected by Kaspersky Lab anti-virus applications.
Using the application, you can do the following:

Manage the anti-virus protection status of the enterprise

Install Kaspersky Lab anti-virus applications on network computers

View reports on anti-virus protection status

Manage the delivery of reports to interested parties: system administrators and other IT specialists

Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console works from the service provider that provides anti-virus protection to your
network. The anti-virus protection provider is responsible for application installation and maintenance. You do not have to
install and run Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console on your computer to work with it. All you need is a web browser
(see section "Software requirements" on page 10).
The following figure shows how Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console works.

Figure 1. Operating layout

You use your web browser to connect to Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console. The web browser establishes a
secure (HTTPS) connection with Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console.

KASPERSKY SECURITY CENTER WEB-CONSOLE

Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console interacts with Kaspersky Security Center, Service Provider Edition
Administration Server, which is located at the anti-virus protection service provider. Administration Server is a Kaspersky
Security Center component that manages Kaspersky Lab anti-virus applications installed on your network's computers.
Administration Server connects to the computers of your network over channels protected by the Secure Socket Layer
(SSL) protocol.
Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console is a web interface that ensures communication between your computer and
Administration Server over a web browser.
The following process describes how Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console works:
1.

Use a web browser to connect to Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console, where the pages of the application
web portal are displayed.

2.

Use the web portal management tools to select an option to get information from Administration Server or to get
an Administration Server management command. Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console performs the
following operations:

If you choose to receive information (for example, to view a list of computers), Kaspersky Security Center
Web-Console sends a request for information to the Administration Server, receives the necessary data,
and sends it to the web browser in a format suitable for viewing.

If you choose a management command (for example, remote installation of an anti-virus application),
Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console receives the command from the web browser and sends it to
Administration Server. Then the application receives the result from Administration Server and sends it to
the web browser in an easy-to-view format.

ABOUT COMPUTERS. ABOUT ADMINISTRATION GROUPS


The anti-virus protection status of your network computers is managed by Administration Server from your anti-virus
protection service provider.
The computers in your network that have Kaspersky Lab applications installed are assigned to administration groups.
Administration groups are sets of computers grouped by function and installed Kaspersky Lab applications.
By default, Administration Server contains the Managed computers administration group. After Kaspersky Lab
applications are installed on a network computer, the computer is added to the Managed computers administration
group. The service provider's administrator can create other administration groups and assign computers to these
groups. An administration group can contain other administration groups.
Computers included in an administration group are referred to as managed. You can add computers in your network to
the list of managed computers, to the Managed computers administration group. To do this, first install the Kaspersky
Lab anti-virus application.

ABOUT INSTALLING ANTI-VIRUS APPLICATIONS


Using Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console you can install anti-virus applications on your network computers. The
list of anti-virus applications available for installation is created and maintained by your service provider's administrator.
There are two ways to install an anti-virus application:

Remote installation (referred to as remote installation mode);

Local installation (referred to as local installation mode).

Anti-virus applications are stored on Administration Server as installation packages. Installation packages are sets of
files required to install Kaspersky Lab applications remotely. Remote installation allows you to install an anti-virus
application on several computers in your network at once. Remote installation mode involves starting and managing the
installation process through the application's web portal.
You can also install anti-virus applications locally on computers of your network. For example, you may need to install an
anti-virus application locally, if remote installation failed on one or more computers. You can give permissions to your
network's users to install applications locally on their computers.

ABOUT UPDATE AGENT


Before you install anti-virus applications on the computers of your network in remote installation mode, you must assign
to one of these computers the Update Agent status. Update Agent is a computer that acts as intermediate sources for
the distribution of updates for anti-virus applications and distribution of installation packages within a group.

28

INSTALLING

ANTI-VIRUS APPLICATIONS

This Update Agent should:

be turned on permanently or most time;

have direct access to the Internet and other computers that belong to the same administration group.

You should install Kaspersky Anti-Virus on the computer that acts as Update Agent.
After you assigned the Update Agent status to one of the computers in your network and installed Kaspersky Anti-Virus
to it, you can install anti-virus applications to other network computers in remote installation mode.

ABOUT HOW TO PUBLISH INSTALLATION PACKAGES


You can allow the users of your network to install Kaspersky Lab anti-virus applications on their computers
independently. To do this, you can publish anti-virus applications installation packages by using Kaspersky Security
Center Web-Console. A published installation package is a prepared executable file designed to install an anti-virus
application with preconfigured settings. To install an anti-virus application by using a published installation package,
download it to client computer and run. After you run a published installation package, an anti-virus application is
installed automatically. A list of installation packages that can be published is created and maintained by your service
provider's administrator.
Published installation packages are stored on Administration Server. Kaspersky Security Center Web-Console provides
links for published installation packages. You can send these links to the users of your network. After the user receives a
link to published installation package (for example, by email), they can download it to their computer and install an antivirus application. To be able to do this, a local or domain account should have rights for installing applications on this
computer.
You can cancel publishing installation package; for example, if they are outdated. If you cancel the publication, the
installation package will be removed from the Administration Server. After you cancel the publication, the link expires.
The package becomes unavailable.

REMOTE INSTALLATION MODE


The remote installation mode allows you to install anti-virus applications to several computers in your network.
To make the remote installation mode available, assign one of network computers an Update Agent status and install
Kaspersky Anti-Virus on it. After this, you can start remote installation of an anti-virus application on computers of your
network.

INSTALLING

ANTI-VIRUS APPLICATIONS

LOCAL INSTALLATION MODE


You can install anti-virus applications to the computers of your network in remote installation mode. There are two ways
to perform local installation:

Install manually using a distribution package. You can download the distribution package to computer and
install anti-virus application manually, following the setup wizard instructions. Manual installation (also referred
to as "manual installation mode") requires your immediate participation in installing an anti-virus application on
each computer. You can allow users of your network to install anti-virus applications manually on their
computers. To do this, place the distribution packages to network shared folder.

Install by using published installation package. To install an anti-virus application in this mode, publish the
installation package of anti-virus application. After the publication is complete, Kaspersky Security Center WebConsole gives you a link to the published installation package. By using this link you can download the
published installation package to computer and run it. After you run a published installation package, an antivirus application is installed automatically. You can allow users of your network to install anti-virus applications
independently on their computers using published installation packages. To do this, you should only send them
links to published installation packages.

by the major test laboratories, are compatible with the software of many suppliers of computer applications, and are
optimized to run on many hardware platforms.
Kaspersky Labs virus analysts work around the clock. Every day they uncover hundreds of new computer threats, create
tools to detect and disinfect them, and include them in the databases used by Kaspersky Lab applications. Kaspersky
Lab's Anti-Virus database is updated hourly; and the Anti-Spam database every five minutes.
Technologies. Many technologies that are now part and parcel of modern anti-virus tools were originally developed by
Kaspersky Lab. It is no coincidence that many other developers use the Kaspersky Anti-Virus kernel in their products,
including: SafeNet (USA), Alt-N Technologies (USA), Blue Coat Systems (USA), Check Point Software Technologies
(Israel), Clearswift (UK), CommuniGate Systems (USA), Critical Path (Ireland), D-Link (Taiwan), M86 Security (USA),
GFI (Malta), IBM (USA), Juniper Networks (USA), LANDesk (USA), Microsoft (USA), NETASQ (France), NETGEAR
(USA), Parallels (Russia), SonicWALL (USA), WatchGuard Technologies (USA), ZyXEL Communications (Taiwan).
Many of the companys innovative technologies are patented.
Achievements. Over the years, Kaspersky Lab has won hundreds of awards for its services in combating computer
threats. For example, in 2010 Kaspersky Anti-Virus received several top Advanced+ awards in a test carried out by AVComparatives, a respected Austrian anti-virus laboratory. But Kaspersky Lab's main achievement is the loyalty of its
users worldwide. The companys products and technologies protect more than 300 million users, and its corporate clients
number more than 200,000.
