Web Addresses Scan

25 March 2022

ID 60069

You can enable scanning of web addresses requested by a user or application over the HTTP protocol. Kaspersky Security can scan web addresses against a database of malicious web addresses and/or database of phishing web addresses.

If this scan is enabled and Kaspersky Security detects a web address that is in the database of malicious web addresses and/or in the database of phishing web addresses, the application takes the action defined in the application settings, for example, blocks or allows access to the specific web address.

If Kaspersky Security blocks a web address that the user tried to access, the browser on the protected virtual machine displays a blocked web address notification.

You can create a list of web addresses to which Kaspersky Security will not block access after detecting them in the databases of malicious and phishing web addresses, irrespective of the action specified in the application settings.

Kaspersky Security does not scan a web address that is requested from an IP address whose traffic is excluded from scans based on the network threat protection exclusion rules.
