- Select the Connect automatically check box if you want Android devices to automatically connect to the Wi-Fi network.
- Select the Hidden network check box if you want the Wi-Fi network to be hidden in the list of available networks on the device.
In this case, to connect to the network the user needs to manually enter the service set identifier (SSID) specified in the settings of the Wi-Fi router on the mobile device.
- In the Protection section, select the type of Wi-Fi network security (open network or secure network protected with the WEP, WPA2 PSK, or 802.1.x EAP protocol).
The 802.1.x EAP security protocol is supported only in Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android 10.48.1.1 or later. The WEP protocol is supported only on Android 9 or earlier.
- If you selected the 802.1.x EAP security protocol, specify the following network protection settings:
- In the Password field, set a network access password if you selected a secure network at step 9.
- On the Additional settings tab, select the Use a proxy server check box if you want to use a proxy server to connect to the Wi-Fi network.
- If you selected Use a proxy server, in the Proxy server address and Proxy server port fields, enter the IP address or DNS name of the proxy server and port number, if necessary.
On devices running Android 8 or later, proxy server settings for Wi-Fi cannot be redefined with a policy. However, you can manually configure the proxy server settings for a Wi-Fi network on the mobile device.
If you are not using a proxy server to connect to a Wi-Fi network, there are no limitations on using policies to manage a Wi-Fi network connection.
- In the Do not use proxy server for the specified addresses field, add web addresses that can be accessed without the use of the proxy server.
For example, you can enter the address
example.com
. In this case, the proxy server will not be used for the addressespictures.example.com
,example.com/movies
, etc. The protocol (for example,http://
) can be omitted.On devices running Android 8 or later, excluding web addresses from the proxy server does not work.
- Click Add.
The added Wi-Fi network is displayed in the list of Wi-Fi networks.
This list contains the names of suggested wireless networks.
On personal devices running Android 10 or later, the operating system prompts the user to connect to such networks. Suggested networks don't appear in the saved networks list on these devices.
On corporate devices and personal devices running Android 9 or earlier, after synchronizing the device with the Administration Server, the device user can select a suggested wireless network in the saved networks list and connect to it without having to specify any network settings.
You can modify or delete Wi-Fi networks in the list of networks using the Edit and Delete buttons at the top of the list.
- Click OK.
- Click Save to save the changes you have made.
Mobile device settings are changed after the next device synchronization with Kaspersky Security Center.
On devices running Android 10 or later, if a user refuses to connect to the suggested Wi-Fi network, the app's permission to change Wi-Fi state is revoked. The user must grant this permission manually.

Page topConfiguring notifications for Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android
If you don't want the mobile device user to be distracted by Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android notifications, you can disable certain notifications.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android uses the following tools to display the status of device protection:
- Protection status notification. This notification is pinned to the notification bar. A protection status notification cannot be removed. The notification displays the device protection status (for example,
) and the number of issues, if any. You can tap the device protection status and see security issues in the app.
- App notifications. These notifications inform the device user about the application (for example, the detection of a threat).
- Pop-up messages. Pop-up messages require action from the device user (for example, action to take when a threat is detected).
All Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android notifications are enabled by default.
On Android 13, the device user must grant the permission to send notifications during or after the Initial Configuration Wizard.
The user can disable all notifications from Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android in the settings on the notification bar. If notifications are disabled, the user is not monitoring operation of the app and may ignore important information (for example, information about failures during device synchronization with Kaspersky Security Center). In this case, to find out the app operating status, the user must open Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android.
To configure displaying notifications about the operation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android:
- In the main window of Kaspersky Security Center Web Console, select Assets (Devices) → Policies & profiles. In the list of group policies that opens, click the name of the policy that you want to configure.
- In the policy properties window, select Application settings.
- Select Android and go to the KES for Android settings section.
- On the Notifications card, click Settings.
The Notifications window opens.
- Enable the settings using the Notifications toggle switch.
- If you want to hide all notifications and pop-up messages, in the Background notifications section, select the Disable notifications when Kaspersky Endpoint Security is in the background check box.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android will display only the protection status notification. The notification displays the device protection status (for example,
) and the number of issues.
In-app notifications (for example, when the user updates anti-malware databases manually) will still be displayed.
We recommend that you enable notifications and pop-up messages. If you disable notifications and pop-up messages when the app is in the background, the app will not warn users about threats in real time. In this case, mobile device users will not see the device protection status unless they open the app.
- In the Notifications about device security issues section, select the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android issues that you want to display on the user's mobile device.
Displaying certain Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android issues is mandatory. These issues are always displayed on the device (for example, issues about license expiration).
- Click OK.
- Click Save to save the changes you have made.
Mobile device settings are changed after the next device synchronization with Kaspersky Security Center. The notifications that you disable will not be displayed on the user's mobile device.
