Edit the list of trusted files, folders, and websites

Trusted Zone is a list of objects that the application does not scan or monitor. You may need to add objects to Trusted Zone if, for example, the Kaspersky application blocks access to a file, application, or website even though you are absolutely sure that this object, application, or web address is harmless.

When an application is added to Trusted Zone, its file and network activities (including suspicious ones) are no longer monitored. However, the Kaspersky application continues to scan the executable file and process of the trusted application.
