  • Allow (default value) — Allow connecting to the domain with an untrusted certificate.
  • Block — Block connection to the domain with an untrusted certificate.

Visiting a domain with an encrypted connections scan error

You can select the action that the application performs when a domain with an encrypted connections scan error is visited:

  • Allow and add domain to exclusions (default value) — Add the domain that resulted in the error to the list of domains with scan errors and do not scan encrypted network traffic when this domain is visited.
  • Block — Block connection to the domain with a scan error.

Certificate verification policy

You can select how the application verifies certificates:

  • Local check: the application does not use the internet to validate a certificate.
  • Full check (default value): the application uses the Internet to check and download the missing chains that are required to validate a certificate.

Trusted domains

Clicking Configure trusted domains opens the Trusted domains window, in which you can configure the list of trusted domain names.

Monitor all network ports

If this option is selected, the application monitors all network ports.

Monitor selected network ports only

If this option is selected, the application monitors only the network ports specified in the Monitored ports window.

This option is selected by default.

Monitored ports

Clicking the Configure network port settings link opens the Monitored ports window, where you can specify the network ports to be monitored by the application.

Trusted certificates window

You can configure a list of root certificates considered trusted by Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security. The list of trusted root certificates is used when scanning encrypted connections.

The following information is displayed for each certificate:

  • certificate serial number
  • certificate issuer
  • certificate start date
  • certificate expiration date
  • SHA256 certificate fingerprint

By default, the certificate list is empty.

You can add and remove certificates.

Clicking the Delete button removes the selected item from the table.

This button is available if at least one item is selected in the table.

Trusted domains window

This list contains the domain names and domain name masks that will be excluded from encrypted connection scans.

Example: *example.com. For example, *example.com/* is incorrect because a domain address, not a web page, needs to be specified.

By default, the list is empty.

You can add, edit and remove domains from the list of trusted domains.

Clicking the Delete button removes the selected item from the table.

This button is available if at least one item is selected in the table.

The selected element's settings are changed in a separate window.
