Starting and stopping the application
After installing Kaspersky Endpoint Security to a device, the application is started automatically. By default, the application then starts automatically when the operating system is booted (at the default level of execution for each operating system).
By default, when Kaspersky Endpoint Security is started, the following functional components of the application are started automatically:
- File Threat Protection.
- Device Control.
- Behavior Detection.
- Web Threat Protection—only if one of the supported browsers is installed in the operating system and local management of Web Threat Protection settings is allowed on the device (a policy is not applied or the "lock" is not set in the policy properties).
- Network Threat Protection—only if the Network Threat Protection settings on the device are defined through a policy. Network Threat Protection is enabled in the policy properties by default. If locally configured settings are applied on the device, Network Threat Protection is disabled by default.
When the application is started, service tasks are automatically started on the device to ensure the operation of additional application functions: the application activation function and the Backup function.
By default, the application also starts user tasks configured on the command line, for which the "after application startup" run mode (PS
run mode) is configured.
If you stop the application, all tasks running on the device will be interrupted. Interrupted user tasks are not resumed automatically after the application is restarted.
