Kaspersky Administration Kit 8.0 RC1 Build 1999 Publisher's description
Kaspersky Administration Kit was developed to be a dynamic and flexible tool for centralized management of Kaspersky Lab applications on a corporate network.
Kaspersky Administration Kit was expressly designed to meet the needs of networks of any size or complexity. This tool enables central administration of dynamic networks that number tens of thousands of nodes, extending to remote access and laptop users.
The Kaspersky Administration Kit provides a centralized solution for managing corporate network anti-virus security systems that are based on Kaspersky Lab's applications included in Kaspersky Open Space Security products. Kaspersky Administration Kit supports all network configurations that use the TCP/IP protocol.
Product philosophy
Versatility and scalability. Kaspersky Administration Kit allows for the effective management of antivirus protection on networks of any complexity and configuration. The tool allows communication between administrative servers and clients on networks with dedicated lines, VPN, firewalls and proxy servers.
Single-point administration. Deploying antivirus protection, setting parameters for groups and individuals, updating antivirus databases and program modules, monitoring system status and responding effectively to critical situations – these as well as other administrative tasks can all be carried out from the administrator’s workstation.
Continuous control. Data on administrative servers and client computers (including laptops) is regularly synchronized to ensure compliance with the company’s security policy and server settings. This also ensures that administrators receive up-to-the-minute information on network incidents, even when they are not in the office (via SMS, for example).
Minimal disruption. Administration of antivirus protection should be barely perceptible to the end user. With Kaspersky Administration Kit, administrators can perform all tasks related to deploying and maintaining the company’s antivirus protection remotely, without having to disrupt end users’ work.
Tightened security. A number of additional safeguards for the administrative network help to harden network security: configuration of administrator role and task definitions, auditing of administrative activities and data exchange via SSL. Moreover, by operating the antivirus program in non-interactive mode, administrators can ensure that users do not make local changes to application settings that could put the network at risk.
Simplified administration. The system is administered via the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), which is a familiar tool for network administrators. A choice of wizards is available to simplify integration and setup of the solution. There is also the option of making backup copies of the database and all application settings, which saves the administrator time when re-installing the program. Moreover, color-coded graphic reports make for easy reading.
Functions
Remote installation. There is a choice of methods for installing antivirus solutions. Computers can be added to the administration group either manually or automatically, using the physical network structure, Active Directory service or IP address ranges.
Centralized administration of applications. Configuring parameters for applications across all nodes on the managed network (including laptops) and updating antivirus databases and program modules can be carried out centrally, from the administrator’s workstation.
Monitoring antivirus protection. Administrators can plan how the program will respond to specific events, for instance by sending notifications via email. Copies of infected files and suspicious objects are saved in backup folders, which are accessible to administrators via a single console.
Security policies for laptops. Administrators can create a special security policy for laptop users, which will activate as soon as the laptop disconnects from the corporate network (for example, when an employee is away on business or vacation).
Support for Cisco Network Admission Control (NAC). If the security settings of a mobile device (e.g., a laptop or PDA) do not meet the requirements of the security policy established on the local network, Cisco NAC can deny network access to the device, place it in quarantine or grant it limited access to network resources.
Kaspersky Administration Kit is designed to manage the company's network anti-virus security system. Using this application, the administrator can:
- Create the structure of administration groups, ensuring the anti-virus protection of the company. Administration groups allow managing a selection of computers as a whole.
- Perform remote install and uninstall of the company's anti-virus applications.
- Ensure remote centralized management of the anti-virus applications.
- Ensure centralized download and distribution to the network computers of updates of the anti-virus applications' databases and application modules.
- Receive notifications about critical events in the operation of the anti-virus applications.
- Receive statistics and reports about the operation of the anti-virus applications.
- Manage licenses of all installed anti-virus applications.
- Ensure centralized management of objects placed into Quarantine or into Backup by the anti-virus applications and with objects whose disinfection is postponed.
Ensure centralized management of the third-party applications within the network.
The Kaspersky Administration Kit consists of three major components:
- Administration Server centralizes the storage of information about Kaspersky Lab's applications installed in the corporate network and about the management of these applications.
- Network Agent coordinates interaction between the Administration Server and Kaspersky Lab's applications installed on a specific network node (a workstation or a server). This component supports all Windows applications included in Kaspersky Open Space Security products. Separate versions of the Network Agent exist
for Kaspersky Lab's Novell and Unix applications.
- Administration Console provides a user interface to the administration services of the Administration Server and Network Agent. The management module is implemented as an extension of the Microsoft Management Console (MMC).

Here are some key features of "Kaspersky Administration Kit":
* Perform remote installation and removal of Kaspersky Lab's applications across the network in a centralized manner. This feature enables the administrator to copy the required set of Kaspersky Lab's applications to a selected computer, and then install these applications remotely to the network computers.
* Remotely manage Kaspersky Lab's applications in a centralized manner. The administrator can create a multi-level anti-virus protection system, and manage the operation of all applications from his workstation. This is particularly important for larger companies whose local network consists of a large number of computers that may be located in several separate buildings or offices.
This feature includes:
* creating the hierarchy of Administration Servers;
* joining hosts into administration groups based on the functions performed by the computers and on the set of applications installed on them;
* configuring the application settings in a centralized way by creating and applying policies;
* configuring the application settings for particular individual computers using the application settings;
* managing the operation of applications in a centralized manner by creating and running group tasks and tasks for specific computers and the Administration Server;
* building individual patterns for the application's operation by creating and running tasks for a set of computers from different administration groups.
* Automatically update the anti-virus database and application modules on computers. This feature allows updating of the anti-virus databases for all installed Kaspersky Lab's applications in a centralized manner, rather than each computer accessing Kaspersky Lab's Internet updates server for each individual update. Updating can be performed automatically according to the schedule set up by the administrator. The administrator can monitor distribution of updates to client computers.
* Receive reports using a dedicated system. This feature allows collection of statistics about the operation of all installed Kaspersky Lab's applications in a centralized manner, and creation of reports based on the statistics. The administrator can create a cumulative network report about application operation, or reports about the operation of all applications installed on individual computers.
* Use events notification system. Delivery of notifications. The administrator can create a list of events which arise in the operation of applications about which he or she wants to be notified. The list of such events may include, for example, detection of a new virus, an error that occurred due to incorrect termination of the database updating on a computer, or detection of a new computer on the network.
* Manage licenses. This feature allows the administrator to install licenses to all installed Kaspersky Lab's applications in a centralized manner, to monitor the observance of the license agreement (that is, that the number of applications operating in the network is less than or equal to the number of licenses) and the expiration date.
