Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform (hereinafter also referred to as "the program") is a solution designed for the protection of a corporate IT infrastructure and timely detection of threats such as zero-day attacks, targeted attacks, and complex targeted attacks known as advanced persistent threats (hereinafter also referred to as "APT"). The program is developed for corporate users.

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform includes two functional blocks:

  • Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack (hereinafter also referred to as "KATA"), which provides perimeter security for the enterprise IT infrastructure.
  • Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response (hereinafter also referred to as "KEDR"), which provides protection for the local area network of the organization.

The program can receive and process data in the following ways:

  • Integrate into the local area network, receive and process mirrored , and extract objects and metadata from the HTTP, FTP, SMTP, and DNS protocols.
  • Connect to the proxy server via the ICAP protocol, receive and process data of HTTP and FTP traffic, as well as HTTPS traffic if the administrator has configured SSL certificate replacement on the proxy server.
  • Connect to the mail server via the POP3 (S) and SMTP protocols, receive and process copies of e-mail messages.
  • Integrate with Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway and Kaspersky Security for Linux Mail Server, receive, and process copies of email messages.

    For detailed information on Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway and Kaspersky Security for Linux Mail Server, please refer to the documentation on these programs.

  • Integrate with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent and receive data from individual computers running Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems in the corporate IT infrastructure. Kaspersky Endpoint Agent continuously monitors processes running, active network connections, and files that are being modified on those computers.
  • Integrate with external systems with the use of the REST API interface and scan files on these systems.

The program uses the following means of Threat Intelligence:

  • Infrastructure of Kaspersky Security Network (also referred to as "KSN") cloud services that provides access to the online Knowledge Base of Kaspersky, which contains information about the reputation of files, web resources, and software. The use of data from Kaspersky Security Network ensures faster responses by Kaspersky programs to threats, improves the performance of some protection components, and reduces the likelihood of false alarms.
  • Integration with Kaspersky Private Security Network (KPSN) to access the reputation databases of Kaspersky Security Network and other statistical data without sending data from user computers to Kaspersky Security Network.
  • Integration with the Kaspersky information system known as Kaspersky Threat Intelligence Portal, which contains and displays information about the reputation of files and URLs.
  • The Kaspersky Threats database.

The program can provide the user with the results of its performance and Threat Intelligence in the following ways:

  • Display the results of work done in the web interface of the Central Node, Primary Central Node (hereinafter also PCN) or Secondary Central Node (hereinafter also SCN) servers.
  • Publish alerts to a SIEM system already being used in your organization via the Syslog protocol.
  • Integrate with external systems via the REST API and send information on detects to external systems on demand.
  • Publish information on Sandbox component alerts in the .

Users with the Senior security officer or Security officer role can perform the following actions in the program:

  • Monitor program performance.
  • View the table of detected signs of targeted attacks and intrusions into the corporate IT infrastructure, filter and search alerts, view and manage each alert, and follow recommendations for evaluating and investigating incidents.
  • Look through the table of events occurring on computers and servers of the corporate IT infrastructure, search for threats, filter, view and manage each event, follow recommendations for evaluating and investigating incidents.
  • Run tasks on hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent: run programs and stop processes, download and delete files, quarantine objects on Kaspersky Endpoint Agent workstations, place copies of files in Storage, and restore files from quarantine.
  • Set up policies for preventing the running of files that they consider to be unsafe on selected hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent.
  • Isolate separate hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent from the network.
  • Work with TAA (IOA) rules to classify and analyze events.
  • Manage user-defined Targeted Attack Analyzer TAA (IOA), Intrusion Detection System (IDS), and YARA rules — upload rules to be used for scanning events and creating alerts.
  • Work with OpenIOC compliant files (IOC files) to search for signs of targeted attacks, infected and probably infected objects on hosts with the Endpoint Agent component and in the Alerts database.
  • Exclude TAA (IOA) rules and IDS rules defined by Kaspersky from scanning.
  • Manage objects in quarantine and copies of objects in Storage.
  • Manage reports on the program performance and on detects.
  • Configure forwarding of notifications about alerts and about program operation problems to one or multiple email addresses.
  • Manage the list of VIP alerts and the list of data excluded from the scan, and populate the local reputation database of KPSN.

Users with the Security auditor role can perform the following actions in the program:

  • Monitor program performance.
  • View the table of detected signs of targeted attacks and intrusions into the enterprise IT infrastructure, filter and search alerts, and view the data of each alert.
  • Look through the table of events occurring on the computers and servers of the enterprise IT infrastructure, search for threats, filter and view each event.
  • View the list of hosts with the Endpoint Agent component and information about selected hosts.
  • View the custom rules for Targeted Attack Analyzer TAA (IOA), Intrusion Detection System (IDS), and YARA.
  • View the scan-excluded TAA (IOA) rules and IDS rules defined by Kaspersky experts.
  • View reports on program performance and reports on alerts.
  • View the list of VIP alerts and the list of data excluded from the scan.
  • Monitor program performance.
  • View all settings made in the program web interface.

Users with the Local administrator or Administrator role can perform the following actions in the program:

  • Configure program operation settings.
  • Configure servers for the distributed solution and multitenancy mode.
  • Administer integration of the program with other programs and systems.
  • Manage TLS certificates and set up trusted connections between Central Node and Sandbox servers and between Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform servers and Kaspersky Endpoint Agent as well as external systems.
  • Manage accounts of program users.
  • Monitor program performance.

The program detects the following events occurring within the corporate IT infrastructure and notifies the user accordingly:

  • A file has been downloaded or an attempt was made to download a file to a corporate LAN computer.
  • A file has been sent to the email address of a user on the corporate LAN.
  • A website link was opened on a corporate LAN computer.
  • Network activity has occurred in which the IP address or domain name of a corporate LAN computer was detected.
  • Processes have been started on a corporate LAN computer.

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform evaluates events and advises the user to direct attention to each detected event (alert) according to the impact that this alert may have on computer or corporate LAN security based on Kaspersky experience.

The Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform user independently makes a decision about further actions in response to alerts.

What's new

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform now includes the following new functionality and fixes:

  1. The Central Node component can be deployed as a fault-tolerant cluster that consists of 2 server roles: storage servers and processing servers. Fault tolerance is achieved through duplication of data between the storage servers and the redundancy of computing resources: if one server fails, its functions are performed by another server with the same role. Meanwhile, the program continues to work.
  2. The ability to configure the sizing settings of the program was added. You can specify the planned volume of SPAN traffic, mail traffic, the number of hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent, as well as the planned size of the Storage and event database. The program configures the servers with the Central Node component in accordance with the specified settings.

    A separate web interface is used to configure the sizing settings, called the web interface for sizing management. If the Central Node component is deployed as a cluster, you can also view the list of servers and shut down the cluster using the web interface for sizing management.

  3. For the Sandbox component, installation of the Astra Linux 1.7 operating system and running objects in this operating system is supported.

    Using an operating system is optional: you can select a set of operating systems that will be used to generate object scan tasks for the Sandbox component: Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 10; Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 10, CentOS 7.8 or Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 10, Astra Linux 1.7.

    The program can run the following objects in Astra Linux 1.7:

  4. New task functionality for hosts with the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows component:
    • The task Get disk image was added.

      This task lets you get a disk image of the selected host.

    • The task Get memory dump was added.

      This task lets you get a RAM dump of the selected host.

      The files resulting from the tasks are saved to a shared network resource.

    Adding new task types resulted in the following changes in the program:

    • Data collection tasks are now grouped in the Get data submenu.
    • Renamed task types:
      • Get fileFile.
      • Collect dataForensics.
      • Get registry keyRegistry key.
      • NTFS metafilesNTFS metafiles.
      • Get process memory dumpProcess memory dump.
  5. New event type added: Process terminated.
  6. The program web interface is changed in the following ways:
    • In the network interface settings window, the option to choose how to configure this interface has been added: manually or import settings from a DHCP server.
    • The option to disable synchronization with an NTP-server was removed from the Settings section, subsection Date and time.
    • The option to enter the maximum allowed hard disk space usage for Central Node and Sensor servers was removed.

Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows 3.14 now includes the following new functionality and fixes:

  1. Now you can interact with the fault-tolerant clusters of Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform servers.
  2. Now you can create a full memory and a full disk dump of a protected device through the command line interface for further use of Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform.
  3. Introduced Kaspersky Endpoint Agent operation mode in which the program is compatible with Azure WVD.
  4. An error related to the possible blocking of files processed by Kaspersky Endpoint Agent is fixed.

Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.12 for Linux has the following changes:

Managing the Kaspersky Managed Detection and Response solution is no longer supported. It is not recommended to use Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux to work with this solution. To work with Kaspersky Managed Detection and Response, use Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux.

[Topic 246849]

Limitations of the current version of the application

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform 5.0 has the following known limitations:

  1. When you upgrade to version 5.0, a non fault-tolerant version of the program is installed. The program data is saved during the update process.
  2. To update the Central Node component on the server with this component, you must first run the script. The script is included in the program distribution kit.
  3. If the Central Node component is installed on a virtual server, before you upgrade the application, make sure that BIOS boot mode is selected for the virtual machine. If EFI boot mode is selected for the virtual machine, an error will occur if you try to install the upgrade.

Restrictions that apply when deploying the Central Node component:

The password for the local administrator account is preset. You can change the password in the web interface of the program.

Restrictions that apply when deploying the Central Node component as a cluster:

  1. A Central Node cluster must include at least 4 servers: 2 storage servers and 2 processing servers. You can scale the cluster to increase the amount of traffic handled or the number of connected hosts in accordance with the Sizing Guide.
  2. It is recommended to add servers with the same hardware configuration to the cluster. Otherwise, a proportional increase in performance is not guaranteed.
  3. Adding an extra server to the cluster does not speed up the processing of objects that are already in the scan queue.
  4. The web interface of the program can be unavailable for some time if the server on which it is located fails.
  5. If the processing server fails, you may lose ICAP, POP3, and SMTP traffic data as well as the copies of emails that are waiting to be processed and the detections associated with them.
  6. If the processing server is configured to receive mirrored traffic from SPAN ports, then SPAN traffic is not processed if this server fails.
  7. If one of the cluster servers fails or the connection between the server and the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent program is temporarily lost, temporary data synchronization in the event database is still possible.
  8. If the configuration of the cluster servers is changed, traffic and events from hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent may be temporarily slowed down.

Restrictions that apply to the Sandbox component:

If the set of operating systems installed on the Sandbox server does not match the set selected on the Central Node server, Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform does not send objects to be scanned by the Sandbox server. If multiple Sandbox servers are connected to the Central Node server, the program sends objects to those Sandbox servers whose installed operating systems match the set selected on Central Node.

Limitations that apply when integrating with the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows:

  1. RAM dump retrieval and disk image retrieval tasks can only be assigned to hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows version 3.14.
  2. Tasks for getting process memory dumps, NTFS metafiles, and registry keys can only be assigned to hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows version 3.13 or later.
  3. The task of scanning hosts using YARA rules can only be assigned to hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows versions 3.12 or later. If you simultaneously assign a task to hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent version 3.12 or later, and to hosts with earlier versions of the program, the task is executed only on hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.12 or later.

    If autorun points are selected as the scan scope, the task is run only on hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.13 or later.

Limitations that apply when integrating with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.12 for Linux:

  1. Hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux program cannot use the following functions:
    • Network isolation of a host.
    • Creating a prevention rule.

      No notifications are created about the unsuccessful application of a prevention rule on hosts with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux program.

    • Finding indicators of compromise on hosts using IOC files.

      No notifications are created about the unsuccessful search of indicators of compromise on hosts with the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux program.

  2. Searching the event database using the OSVersion criterion displays only hosts with the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux program. Hosts with the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows program are not displayed in search results.
  3. The OS name field in the event information is only filled in for events that are logged in the event database by Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux. Event information logged in the event database by Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Windows does not have this field filled in.
  4. The list of events that Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux logs in the event database is limited to the following types:
  5. The list of tasks that you can create on hosts with the Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux program is limited to the following types:
    • Get file
    • Run program

      When you create the task, the program does not attempt to verify the path to the executable file or the file that you want to receive.

  6. In information about events registered in the event database by Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux, the Time created field displays file modification time.

Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.14 for Windows has the following known limitations:

  1. SHA-2 support in Windows is required for Kaspersky Endpoint Agent to work correctly.
  2. When creating an installation package in Kaspersky Security Center version 12 or later to install Kaspersky Endpoint Agent on Windows XP devices, you must use the installer file (setup.exe) from the installation package created in Kaspersky Security Center version 10.5.
  3. In Kaspersky Security Center 13.2 or later, to install Kaspersky Endpoint Agent on Windows XP devices, you must use the standard Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.14 distribution kit instead of the installation package created in Kaspersky Security Center.
  4. The installer cannot stop the soyuz service until the service is initialized. For example, the installer returns the Invalid password error when trying to remove or modify the configuration of the application immediately after installation is completed, since initialization of the soyuz service is not completed and the service cannot be stopped.
  5. Kaspersky Endpoint Agent cannot be restored or uninstalled from the device if the integrity of the agent.exe module (Kaspersky Endpoint Agent command line utility) is violated.
  6. The capability to run and execute Kaspersky Endpoint Agent service (soyuz.exe) with the PPL flag is implemented. This feature is provided by the klelaml.sys driver. Violation of the klelaml.sys driver integrity results in the operating system loading failure. In this case, it is recommended to use Windows system recovery utilities. The absence of the klelaml.sys driver when the PPL flag is enabled for the soyuz.exe process does not lead to the operating system failure, but results in Kaspersky Endpoint Agent crash. In this case, it is recommended to run the program installer and perform recovery in the quiet mode with the REINSTALL=Drivers.klelam key.
  7. After installing, restoring, changing set of components, or removing Kaspersky Endpoint Agent, it is recommended to restart the operating system as soon as possible because changes to some program settings can only be finalized at system startup.
  8. Kaspersky Endpoint Agent installer cannot be launched on a device with the operating system to which the active CodeIntegrity policy is applied.
  9. The component that prohibits opening documents has the following limitation: document blocking rules are not applied to objects that are opened using OLE automation.
  10. Before sending telemetry events to the KATA Central Node server, Kaspersky Endpoint Agent saves data in the event queue. If the event queue exceeds 10,000 unprocessed events, Kaspersky Endpoint Agent does not queue the events until free slots appear in the queue.
  11. If Kaspersky Endpoint Agent is running on devices with the Windows 7 operation system, the program excludes data about network connections related to processes with PID=4 and PID=0 from telemetry.
  12. If Kaspersky Endpoint Agent is used on the same device with Kaspersky Endpoint Security, and the file system level encryption (FLE) component is installed in Kaspersky Endpoint Security, Kaspersky Endpoint Agent does not register telemetry events about loading modules (LoadImage) and does not send these events to KATA Central Node component.
  13. If more than one application is specified as the value of the Application criterion when configuring the settings of network isolation exclusions, Kaspersky Endpoint Agent allows connection only for the first application in the list. Network connections for other applications specified in the list will be ignored. This limitation is reproduced when isolating devices with Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2 operating systems.
  14. When scanning for indicators of compromise, if the search involves parsing text strings, the "is" condition takes into account whitespace, and the need to escape the indicator description in the IOC file with CDATA characters. For example, to detect an object with the copyright Copyright (C) 1998-2017 John Smith by the is condition, the indicator description must be specified in the following format: <Content type="string"><![CDATA[Copyright (C) 1998-2017 John Smith]]></Content>. To simplify description of the indicators, the contains condition can also be used.
  15. Objects quarantined by Kaspersky Endpoint Agent cannot be sent from Kaspersky Security Center quarantine to Kaspersky for analysis.
  16. The check boxes corresponding to the "Read" and "Perform operations with device selections" permissions that are displayed in the group of settings for role-based access control (RBAC) in the Administration Console, in the section with permissions for managing Kaspersky Endpoint Agent plug-in, do not apply to the group of settings in Kaspersky Security Center. If you select these check boxes, the Read and Perform operations with device selections permissions will not be restricted for the specified users.
  17. When generating event selections, the filters are not applied to some of Kaspersky Endpoint Agent events published in Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
  18. The installer of Kaspersky Endpoint Agent and Kaspersky Endpoint Agent management plug-in automatically selects the program localization based on the operating system regional settings on the device where the program or management plug-in is installed:
    • If the operating system uses the RU-RU locale, the Russian version of Kaspersky Endpoint Agent and Kaspersky Endpoint Agent administration plug-in is installed.
    • If the operating system uses any locale other than RU-RU, the English version of Kaspersky Endpoint Agent and Kaspersky Endpoint Agent administration plug-in is installed.

    Program localization affects the language of texts used to describe program modules in the system and when publishing program events to the Windows Event Log, as well as texts of Kaspersky Security Center reports. Kaspersky Endpoint Agent management plug-in localization affects the language of texts used in the program interface of Administration Console (interface of policies, group tasks, and program properties). Configuring the localization of the program manually is not supported.

    Please note that if regional settings on managed devices and on the device with Kaspersky Endpoint Agent administration plug-in do not match, localization of Kaspersky Endpoint Agent interface in the Administration Console and localization of events published by the program in Kaspersky Security Center reports may not be the same. Also, the localization of the program interface in the Administration Console and the localization of events published by the program in Kaspersky Security Center reports may differ from the localization of Administration Console interface and the compatible EPP interface in the Administration Console.

  19. After installing, restoring, changing set of components, or removing Kaspersky Endpoint Agent, it is recommended to restart the operating system as soon as possible because changes to some program settings can only be finalized at system startup.
  20. If the start schedule for a group task is set to On application launch, the task execution status is updated with a delay in the task execution history For this reason, in some cases, the task execution history will not display the task execution statuses.
  21. If the operating system is activated under a Volume License, you may need to reactivate the operating system after Kaspersky Endpoint Agent is installed due to the installation of the program network drivers.
  22. In the Windows XP and Windows Vista operating systems, some information about files in telemetry events sent to the Telemetry collection server may be missing. This is due to the fact that the possibility of obtaining some information about files appeared in later versions of MS Windows operating systems.

Kaspersky Endpoint Agent 3.12 for Linux has the following known limitations:

  1. Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux does not support AppArmor and SELinux mandatory access control systems in their enforcing modes. For the program to work correctly, these systems must be switched to permissive mode.
  2. Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux requires installing Linux Audit Daemon 2.8 or later on the device.
  3. For connection of Kaspersky Endpoint Agent for Linux with Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux rsyslog service with loaded imuxsock module is used. To check if the module is loaded in the rsyslog service configuration, run the following command: grep -r imuxsock /etc/rsyslog*. If the module loading string is commented, remove the # comment sign before the string and restart rsyslog service to save the changes.
