Selecting protection mode

Protection mode is the condition which triggers the real-time protection task. By default, Kaspersky Anti-Virus uses smart mode, which determines whether the object is to be scanned based on the actions performed on it. For example, when working with a Microsoft® Office document, Kaspersky Anti-Virus scans the file when it is first opened and last closed. Intermediate operations that overwrite do not cause the file to be scanned.

To specify actions to be performed on the threat of specific type:

  1. In the left part of Kaspersky Web Management Console select the Real-time protection task type.
  2. Select theProtection areas tab.
  3. Within the line containing the selected protection area, click the link in the Security Level column.

    This will open the Task settings window on the Security settings tab.

  4. In the Scan on file access type dropdown list, select one of the following values:
    • Smart check, to enable the smart mode;
    • When opened, to enable protection mode at an attempt to access the file;
    • When opened and modified, to enable protection mode at an attempt to open and modify the file.
  5. Click OK to close the Task settings window.
  6. On the Protection areas tab, click the Save button to save the changes.
