Managed Kaspersky applications on client devices can add status descriptions to the list. Kaspersky Security Center can receive the description of a client device status from managed Kaspersky applications installed on that device. If the status that has been assigned to the device by a managed application is other than that assigned by Kaspersky Security Center, Administration Console displays the status that is the most critical to the device security. For example, if a managed application has assigned the Critical status to the device while Kaspersky Security Center has assigned it the Warning status, Administration Console displays the Critical status for that device with the corresponding description provided by the managed application. |

File status icons in Administration Console
For ease of file management in Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console, icons are displayed next to the names of files (see table below). Icons indicate statuses assigned to files by managed Kaspersky applications on client devices. Icons are shown in the workspaces of the Quarantine, Backup, and Active threats folders.
Statuses are assigned to objects by Kaspersky Endpoint Security installed on the client device on which the object is located.
