Kaspersky Security for Virtualization 6.2 Light Agent

Configuring connection protection on the Light Agent

You can configure the settings for connection protection on the Light Agent in the Light Agent policy (in the policy of the application running in Light Agent mode). Connection protection settings for Light Agent for Windows are also available in the local interface of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows.

By default, protection of the connection between Light Agents and the Protection Server is disabled. To enable connection protection, select the Encrypt data channel between Light Agent and the Protection Server check box.

If the check box is selected, a secure connection is established between the Light Agent, which is managed by policy, and the Protection Server on the SVM that the Light Agent is connecting to. A Light Agent for which connection protection is enabled can only connect to an SVM on which connection protection is enabled or an unprotected connection to the Protection Server is allowed.

If the check box is cleared, an unprotected connection is established between the Light Agent and the Protection Server on the SVM that the Light Agent is connecting to.

For details about configuring the applications running in Light Agent mode, see the Help for the relevant application.
