Configuring registration of Kaspersky Thin Client event notifications in the Kaspersky Security Center Web Console

Expand all | Collapse all

Kaspersky Security Center lets you receive information about events that occur while Kaspersky Thin Client is running. In the Kaspersky Security Center Web Console interface, you can configure a notification regarding the registration of such events. Each event in Kaspersky Security Center has its own severity level. Depending on the conditions of its occurrence, an event can be assigned one of the following severity levels:

  • A critical event is an event that indicates the occurrence of a critical problem that may lead to data loss, an operational malfunction, or a critical error.
  • A functional failure is an event that indicates the occurrence of a serious problem, error or malfunction that occurred during operation of the application or while performing a procedure.
  • A warning is an event that requires attention because it emphasizes important situations in the operation of Kaspersky Thin Client and may indicate a possible issue in the future. Most events are designated as warnings if the application can be restored without loss of data or functional capabilities after such events occur.
  • An info is an event that informs about successful completion of an operation, proper functioning of the application, or completion of a procedure.

You can configure notifications about Kaspersky Thin Client events in the Kaspersky Security Center Web Console for one device or for a group of devices.

How to configure event notifications for one device

  1. Select Devices → Managed devices in the main window of the Kaspersky Security Center Web Console.
  2. Click the name of the device where Kaspersky Thin Client is running. You can view the device name in the control panel of the Kaspersky Thin Client interface. If the computer name is not on the list, add it to the Managed devices group.
  3. In the window that opens, select the Applications tab.
  4. Click the name of the Kaspersky Security Management Suite web plug-in.

    This opens a window containing information about Kaspersky Thin Client.

  5. Select the Event configuration tab.
  6. Select the severity of events whose information you want to receive:
    • Critical
    • Functional failure
    • Warning
    • Info

    A table of events for the selected severity level will be displayed.

  7. Click the Add event button and in the window that opens select the check box next to the types of events that you want to add.
  8. Click OK.
  9. To save the changes, click the Save button.

Kaspersky Thin Client will send the selected types of events with the specified severity to the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server. The default storage time for events is 30 days.

How to configure event notifications for a group of devices

  1. In the main window of the Web Console, select Devices → Policies & profiles.
