Statuses of client devices in Kaspersky Security Center

The protected virtual machine (the virtual machine on which the Light Agent component is installed) and the SVM are client devices for Kaspersky Security Center. Information about the state of a client device in Kaspersky Security Center is displayed by the client device status (OK, Critical, or Warning).

The client device status changes to Critical or Warning for the following reasons:

• According to the rules defined in Kaspersky Security Center. For example, the status changes if a security application is not installed on the device, a virus scan has not been performed in a long time, anti-virus databases are outdated, or the license has expired. For more details about the reasons for status changes and configuring status assignment conditions, please refer to the Kaspersky Security Center help.
• Kaspersky Security Center receives the device status from the managed application, i.e. from Kaspersky Security solution components.

  Receipt of the device status from the managed application must be enabled in Kaspersky Security Center in the lists of conditions for assigning the Critical and Warning statuses. Conditions for assigning device statuses are configured in the properties window of an administration group.

  The SVM status changes in the following cases:

  • No connection to the Integration Server
  • No connection to the virtual infrastructure

  The status of a protected virtual machine changes in the following cases:

  • No connection to the Integration Server
  • No connection to the SVM
  • A modification of files or modification of the registry was detected on the virtual machine

For details on client device statuses, please refer to the Kaspersky Security Center help.
