Antivirus Overview Antivirus (KAV) provides Kaspersky Antivirus endpoint security for managed machines. Antivirus can be installed independently of Endpoint Security or Anti-Malware.

Antivirus ensures protection of your computer against known and new threats. Each type of threat is processed by separate application components, each of which can be enabled or disabled by configuration profile. Configuration profiles enable you to quickly apply different types of Antivirus solutions to many machines at the same time.

Antivirus includes the following protection tools:

Memory-resident protection components for:

Servers and workstations, with separate licensing for each

Files and personal data

System

Network

Scheduled, recurring virus scans of individual files, folders, drives, areas or the entire computer.

Updates of the Antivirus clients and its components, as well as the Antivirus definition databases used to scan for malicious programs.

Status dashboard for all Antivirus managed machines.

A Detections page for all virus threats not automatically resolved by Antivirus.

Event managed alerts.

Windows Security Center checking.

Specialized agent procedures are installed with Antivirus that enable you to deploy the Antivirus installer package to endpoints (http://community.kaseya.com/kb/w/wiki/how-do-i-pre-deploy-the-kav-installer-package-to-endpoints.aspx). To reduce KServer download bandwidth, the installer package gets deployed to a local file share location then distributed to endpoints for installation.

Note: See Antivirus System Requirements (page 1).

Assign

Assign an Antivirus configuration profile to selected machines. Workstations and servers can be selected and assigned at the same time. You do not have to select only workstations or only servers. Workstations are assigned the selected workstation profile. Servers are assigned the selected server profile.

Scan

Schedules an Antivirus scan on selected machines.

Start Date - The start date of the scan.

Time - The start time of the scan.

Distribution Window - Reschedules the task to a randomly selected time no later than the number of periods specified, to spread network traffic and server loading.

There are two types of scan:

Full Scan - A thorough scan of the entire system. The following objects are scanned by default: system memory, programs loaded on startup, system backup, email databases, hard drives, removable storage media and network drives.

Quick Scan - Virus scan of operating system startup objects.

Update

Schedules an update on selected machines with the latest Antivirus definitions.

Start Date - The start date of the update.

Time - The start time of the update.

Distribution Window - Reschedules the task to a randomly selected time no later than the number of periods specified, to spread network traffic and server loading.

Install

Install - Installs the Antivirus client on selected machines. Workstations and servers can be selected and installed at the same time. Workstations are assigned the selected workstation profile. Servers are assigned the selected server profile.

Note: Specialized agent procedures are installed with Antivirus that enable you to deploy the

Antivirus installer package to endpoints

(http://community.kaseya.com/kb/w/wiki/how-do-i-pre-deploy-the-kav-installer-package-to-endpoints.aspx). To

reduce KServer download bandwidth, the installer package gets deployed to a local file share

location then distributed to endpoints for installation.

Uninstall - Uninstalls the Antivirus client on selected machines.

Note: If you uninstall the Antivirus client manually from the managed machine, you are prompted for

a password. The password is KaseyaUninstall.

Verify - Installs a Antivirus client when the Kaseya Antivirus version of Kaspersky is already present on a managed machine.

Verify can also be used to associate the Antivirus client to a new VSA server. This eliminates the need to uninstall and redeploy Antivirus on the workstation. For example, use Verify when migrating from one VSA server to another or when deploying Antivirus manually due to low bandwidth constraints.

Note: Antivirus uses a custom build of Kaspersky Antivirus. Verify cannot be used to convert a retail

version of Kaspersky Antivirus to the Kaseya custom build of Kaspersky Antivirus. Additionally,

every manual installation must use the Kaspersky installer and setup file located in

\VSAHiddenFiles\kav\, and must set the API and uninstall passwords. Failure to do so renders

Antivirus updates and configuration changes inoperable. Contact support (https://portal.kaseya.net) for

more information on how to perform a manual installation.

Licensing

AutoExtend - Enables and disables Auto-Extend for machines installed with Antivirus. Displays the total number of licenses purchased and expired, and the number of full and partial licenses available.

When Auto-Extend is enabled and a Antivirus license expires, a new, full license is pulled from your license pool automatically. This ensures the endpoint does not go without antimalware protection at any point, as long as you have available licenses. Auto-Extend always uses a full license.

In the event you uninstall Antivirus from an endpoint, that license goes into a partial license pool. When Antivirus is deployed to a new endpoint, Kaseya License Manager always checks the partial license pool first. If a partial license is available, the partial license is used on the endpoint with the new install. If no partial licenses are available, Kaseya uses a full Antivirus license.

Licenses begin their clock ticking on the first day they are installed. If uninstalled, the clock continues to tick on that license. By deploying these partial licenses for new installations of Antivirus, you can get the most out of each 1-year license.

License Counts - Lists license counts for servers and workstations. Licenses for servers and workstations are purchased and tracked separately. Antivirus license counts also display on the System > License Manager page.

Total Purchased to date

Full Available (Purchased not allocated, applied, partial or expired)

6

Allocated (Scheduled for install, but install not yet complete)

Applied (Active license applied to a machine)

Partial Available (Formerly assigned to a machine but returned to pool before expiration)

Partial Allocated (Partial Available that has been scheduled for install, but install not yet complete)

Total (purchase licenses minus expired)

Expired Licenses

Protection

Get Status - Returns the enable/disabled status of Antivirus components on a machine and, if necessary, corrects the display of the component status icons in the Explorer Grid.

Temporarily Enable - Re-enables Antivirus protection on selected machines.

Temporarily Disable - Disables Antivirus protection on selected machines. Some software installations require Antivirus software be disabled to complete the install.

The Application Event Log Type

The Error, Warning, and Information Event Categories

Antivirus Event Log Alerts

On the Monitor > Event Log Alerts page select the Application event log type. When Antivirus is

installed, the following predefined event sets can be assigned to a Antivirus managed machine.

ZC-KAV-CL1-W Client Install Reboot Required

ZC-KAV-DF0-EWI Definitions

ZC-KAV-DF1-W Definitions Not Updated in 2 Days

ZC-KAV-DF2-E Definition Update Failed

ZC-KAV-FS0-EWI Full Scans

ZC-KAV-FS1-I Full Scan Started

ZC-KAV-FS2-I Full Scan Completed

ZC-KAV-FS3-E Full Scan Failed to Complete

ZC-KAV-QS0-EWI Quick Scans

ZC-KAV-QS1-I Quick Scan Started

ZC-KAV-QS2-I Quick Scan Completed

ZC-KAV-QS3-E Quick Scan Failed to Complete

ZC-KAV-TH0-EWI Threats

ZC-KAV-TH1-W Threat Detected

ZC-KAV-TH2-I Threat Remediated

The ZC-KAV prefix indicates that these event sets are sample Antivirus event sets. Sample event sets

can be used directly or they can be used as examples for building your own Antivirus alert event sets.

The next segment following ZC-KAV indicates the type of alert. The following are the Antivirus alert

types:

CLx - Client related alerts

14

DFx - Anti-Virus Definition related alerts

FSx - Anti-Virus Full Scan related alerts

QSx - Anti-Virus Quick Scan related alerts

THx - Anti-Virus Threat related alerts

If the number following the alert type designator is zero (0), the event set is a rollup of related alerts.

Any number other than zero (0) indicates the event set is a single individual alert. The letters following

the alert type segment indicate the event categories covered by the alert:

E = Error

W = Warning

I = Information

When configuring Antivirus alerts, ensure all three of the Error, Warning, and Information event

categories are selected.

Also, for rollup event sets (ZC-KAV-DF0, ZC-KAV-FS0, ZC-KAV-QS0, or ZC-KAV-TH0), be sure to

set the Ignore additional alarms for option to a low threshold, 1 minute, for example. This ensures that the multiple alerts possible in a rollup event set are not ignored if they should occur.

Antivirus Statistics in the Executive

Summary Report

Info Center > Reports > Executive Summary

The Executive Summary report includes a section called Antivirus for the following statistics. If no filtering is selected, statistics are for all machines in all groups in all organizations. The number of days is specified in the report definition.

Summary Statistics

Machine Installation Ratio - The number of machines installed with Antivirus compared to the total number of machines.

Machines with full scans last <N> Days - The number of machines with Antivirus installed that have performed a full scan within <N> number of days.

Machines with unhandled detections - The number of machines that have at least one unhandled threat displayed in the Detections (page 10) page.

Bases Date - The latest date of Antivirus definitions uploaded to the set of machines specified by this report.

Performance Statistics Last <N> Days

Total Objects Scanned - The number of files and system objects scanned.

Total Detections - The number of handled and unhandled threats.

Total New Installations - The number of new Antivirus installations.

Total Quick Scans Completed - A quick scan includes operating system startup objects.

Total Full Scans Completed - A full scan includes system memory, programs loaded on startup, system backup, email databases, hard drives, removable storage media and network drives.

Total Updates Completed - An update updates the Antivirus definitions on a machine.

The Network Health Score of the Executive Summary includes an Antivirus category. The Antivirus rating is a composite score weighted as follows for each individual machine:

Anti-virus install percentage - 40% - Is Antivirus installed on the machine?

Full scans run during the period - 40% - Has at least one Antivirus scan run during the period?

Active threats - 20% - Has zero threats been detected during the period?

15

After each machine's Antivirus rating is determined, they are grouped into the following percentage buckets, which can be customized: 100%, 75%, 50%, 25%.

You can adjust how heavily each category effects the total Network Health Score by adjusting the weight value for each category. Weights range from 0 to 100. Set the weight to zero to turn off that category.
