When deploying Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android in corporate device operating mode via QR code on devices with pre-installed Google Mobile Services (GMS), their Wi-Fi connectivity to certain Google endpoints is checked. If a Wi-Fi network has no access to the internet, the connectivity check fails and the deployment finishes with an error.
To avoid the connectivity check, you can deploy the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android app on corporate devices in a closed network by using a Proxy Auto-Configuration (PAC) file.
To use a PAC file to deploy the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android app:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
return "DIRECT";
}
Save a link to the PAC file (for example, https://intranet.mycompany.com/files/proxy.pac).
Choose the general version of the app as the source.
On the Operating systems step of the wizard, in the Installation settings section, you will be asked to specify the network for downloading the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android app. At this step, configure the use of the previously created PAC file for network connection by linking it to the Wi-Fi network settings on a device. To do this, use one of the methods below:
If the APK installation file has been downloaded from the Kaspersky website (step 3), you need to replace the link in the QR code with the address of the closed network link.
When deploying the app via an installation package downloaded from Kaspersky Security Center, after the device is reset to factory settings and the QR code is scanned, a Blocked by Play Protect message may appear on the device. The issue is caused by the installation package's signing certificate being different from the one specified in Google Play. The user should continue the installation by choosing Install anyway. If OK is selected, the installation process will be interrupted and the device will be reset to factory settings.
The Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android app is installed on a device in corporate device operating mode in a closed network.
