You can export Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security settings to an XML configuration file and import settings into Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security from the configuration file. You can save all application settings or only settings for individual components to a configuration file.

When you export all settings of Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security to a file, the general application settings and settings of the following Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security components and functions are saved:

  • Real-Time File Protection
  • KSN Usage
  • Device Control
  • Applications Launch Control
  • Rule Generator for Device Control
  • Rule Generator for Applications Launch Control
  • On-Demand Scan tasks
  • File Integrity Monitor
  • Log Inspector
  • Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security database and software modules update
  • Quarantine
  • Backup
  • Logs
  • Administrator and user notifications
  • Trusted Zone
  • Exploit Prevention
  • Password protection

Also, you can save the general settings of Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security in the file, as well as the rights of user accounts.

You cannot export group task settings.

Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security exports all passwords used by the application, for example, user account settings for running tasks or connecting to a proxy server. Exported passwords are saved in encrypted form in the configuration file. You can import passwords only using Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security installed on this protected device if it has not been reinstalled or updated.

You cannot import previously saved passwords using Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security installed on a different protected device. After settings have been imported on another protected device, all passwords must be entered manually.

If a Kaspersky Security Center policy is active at the time of export, the application exports the specified values used by that policy.

Settings from a configuration file containing parameters for individual components of Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security (e.g., from a file created in Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security installed with incomplete set of components) can be imported. After the settings are imported, only those Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security settings that were contained in the configuration file are changed. All other settings remain the same.

Settings of an active Kaspersky Security Center policy that have been blocked do not change when importing the settings.
