Password protection allows granting Kaspersky Endpoint Security access to individual Active Directory user accounts and manually added user accounts.

Active Directory user accounts

You can grant Kaspersky Endpoint Security access to individual users or groups within the Active Directory domain. For example, if exiting the application is blocked for the Everyone group, you can grant the Exit the application permission to an individual user. As a result, you can exit the application only if you are logged in as that user or as KLAdmin.

You can use account credentials to access the application only if the computer is in the domain. If the computer is not in the domain, you can use the KLAdmin account or a temporary password.

Manually added user accounts

You can create a user account that is not present in Active Directory and assign individual permissions to that user account. That is, you can create a service user account and use it instead of KLAdmin. This way, you do not need to share your KLAdmin password with other users or create new Active Directory user accounts. You can specify any user name and password. For example, you can grant the View reports permission to the service user account. As a result, if viewing reports is prohibited to the 'All' group, you can open the reports using the service user account or the KLAdmin user account.
