Easily manage core security features remotely with our Kaspersky Security Center Cloud console. It's a cloud-based management server deployed in Azure. There's no need to spend time and resources deploying and maintaining a management server – customers can hand these responsibilities over to Kaspersky and we'll take care of them for you. Security for Windows, Mac and Linux workstations with Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business Select can now be managed directly through the cloud console.

• Centralized endpoint discovery and deployment
• Distribution point support
• Server hierarchy supports migration – e.g. moving the primary server to the cloud while retaining the secondary server on-premises
• Migration wizard
• Supports up to 10,000 nodes, making it suitable for businesses of every size, including enterprises

Existing management options - the MMC console and the web console - are still available.

Main features:

Advanced tier features management – Kaspersky Vulnerability and Patch Management, Encryption and Remote Desktop Management – is now available via a web console for Kaspersky Enterprise Security for Windows, Kaspersky Enterprise Security for Mac, and Kaspersky Security for Windows Server.

The newly released Kaspersky Sandbox and Kaspersky EDR Optimum products, as well as the latest version of Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security, are also supported.

Kaspersky Security Center lets you monitor any changes to critically important components of your assets, such as web servers and ATMs, and respond promptly to breaches. . Receive events from the System Integrity Monitor component – this lets you monitor not only the file system of a device (File Integrity Monitoring), but also its registry hives, firewall status and the status of connected hardware.

Deployment, configuration and management of security policies for all devices on all platforms is carried out from within the single console, providing better visibility while improving manageability and control.

Untrusted public Wi-Fi networks expose devices – and your corporate network – to attack. By creating a list of trusted networks specifically for employees on the move, you can allow access to trusted Wi-Fi networks, and prohibit other networks, without impacting mobility or productivity.

Configure and manage firewall settings in Linux and Windows operation systems. Kaspersky Security Center lets you enforce your network policy to all endpoints from a single console.

Define and control what devices and applications can access your network, and how they can execute, to guard against malware. Manage and control which devices, applications and sites employees can access.

Native integration between the management console and the Amazon Web Services cloud environment provides full visibility and control over Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux and Kaspersky Security for Windows Server instances deployed in the cloud.

Deploy Kaspersky Security Center on an Amazon EC2 instance to manage protection of your environment, or subscribe to one of the AMIs available at the AWS Marketplace and receive an instance with ready-to-use Kaspersky Security Center. In this case, Kaspersky Security Center is installed on the instance without you having to do anything.

Other public clouds also can be used in the usual way.

A new signature update mechanism reduces the volume of update traffic travelling between your Kaspersky Security Center server and agents by up to 20 times.

Further volume optimization can be achieved by using a remote endpoint as a distribution point; every distribution point can now also serve as a Kaspersky Security Network proxy in remote environments.

This lightening of the load on your communications channels means more bandwidth availability for other tasks.

Audit enhancements across all endpoint applications allow administrators to track changes and roll back to previous policies. Compare two policies for a single managed application – after which a report is generated that reflects which policy settings match and which differ. This is particularly useful if, for example, different administrators in their respective offices have created multiple policies for a single managed application, or if a single top-level policy has been inherited by all local offices and modified for each office.
