Integrating with Kaspersky Security Center

This section describes how to create and configure integration between Tigerpaw and Kaspersky Security Center by using Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP.

To successfully create integration, connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server and perform the steps described in the following sections.

Connecting to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server

When you start Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP, the connection settings window opens. In this window, specify the settings to connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server.

Connecting to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server

To connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server:

1. In the Start menu, select Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP.
2. In the window that opens, select the Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business solution to connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server.
3. You can connect to Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server in one of the following ways:
   • By providing the connection parameters for the computer on which the Administration Server is installed.

     If you selected this method of connection, specify the following connection settings. None of the fields can be blank.

     • Address—Address of the computer on which the Administration Server is installed. You can specify this value as an IP address or as a domain name of the computer.
     • User name—User name to connect to the computer on which the Administration Server is installed, that is, to the computer whose address you specified in the Address field.
     • Password—Password to connect to the computer, on which the Administration Server is installed, that is, to the computer whose address you specified in the Address field.
   • By selecting the Administration Server certificate.

     In this case, you do not have to provide the connection parameters for the computer on which the Administration Server is installed. Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP uses the certificate of Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server to connect to this Administration Server. Usage of the certificate guarantees that Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP connects to the Administration Server from which the certificate was downloaded.

     The Administration Server certificate is created automatically during installation of the Administration Server and is stored in the %ProgramData%\Application Data\KasperskyLab\adminkit\1093\cert folder on the computer that has Administration Server installed. Before starting to use the Administration Server certificate for authentication, copy the certificate file, klserver.cer, to the computer on which Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP is installed.

To use Administration Server certificate:

1. Click the Select Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server certificate link.
2. In the window that opens, select the Use a certificate check box, click Browse, and then navigate to the certificate file.
3. Click OK to start using the selected certificate for connection.
4. If you want to establish the connection to the Administration Server through a proxy server, select the Use proxy server check box. By default, this check box is cleared.

   If you selected the Use proxy server check box, provide the following proxy-server settings:

   • Address—Network address of the proxy server. Provide the address as a full domain name of the proxy server.
   • User name—User name to connect to the proxy server.
   • Password—Password to connect to the proxy server.
5. Click the Proceed button to connect to the Administration Server using the specified settings.

The system validates the provided settings and connects to the Administration Server.

Creating a Kaspersky Security Center integration with Tigerpaw

After you connect to the Administration Server, an integration settings window opens, where you can create an integration between Tigerpaw and Kaspersky Security Center by means of Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP.

Creation of an integration between Tigerpaw and Kaspersky Security Center is required only when you launch Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP for the first time.

Specifying Tigerpaw integration settings

To create integration with Tigerpaw:

1. In the integration settings window that opens after you connect to the Administration Server, specify the following settings for the newly created integration:
   • Select platform—Select the integration platform from the drop-down list. The list contains the names of all platforms that Kaspersky Security Center can be integrated with. For integration with Tigerpaw, select Tigerpaw.
   • Integration name—Name of the new integration. This field cannot be blank. By default, the integration name is Integration with Tigerpaw. The integration name is displayed in the Kaspersky Security Integration Tool for MSP window as a link that allows you to view and access the integration properties.

     For an integration with Kaspersky Business Hub, click the View integration ID link under the integration name to view the identifier of the integration. You may have to provide this ID to Kaspersky Lab Technical Support for diagnostics and troubleshooting.

   • SOAP user name—ASMX API user name that you created for your integration. This field cannot be blank.
   • SOAP password—Password for the ASMX API user that you created for your integration. This field cannot be blank.

     For details about how to obtain the ASMX API user name and password, see Configuring ASMX API connection parameters.

   • REST public key—Public key generated by Tigerpaw for the rep account that you use for your integration. This field cannot be blank.
   • REST private key—Private key generated by Tigerpaw for the rep account that you use for your integration. This field cannot be blank.

     Tigerpaw generates both public and private keys. For details about how to generate the keys, see Configuring REST API connection parameters.

2. Click the Proceed button when you have finished specifying the integration settings.

   These settings are saved and then used by Kaspersky Security Integration with Tigerpaw to gain access to Tigerpaw items.

Kaspersky Security Center is now integrated with Tigerpaw.

Adding virtual servers to the integration

After an integration with Tigerpaw is created, a window opens where you can add Kaspersky Security Center virtual servers to the integration. Kaspersky Security Center virtual servers are then mapped to the Tigerpaw accounts.

Adding virtual servers to the integration

To add Kaspersky Security Center virtual servers to the integration:

1. In the window, which lists Kaspersky Security Center virtual servers, select the check boxes next to the existing virtual servers to add them to the integration.

   If you want to add all virtual servers to the integration, select the Select all check box.

2. Click Proceed.

   You will now be able to map these virtual servers to Tigerpaw accounts.

Each virtual server can be added to one integration only. That is, if a virtual server is added to an integration, it is not displayed in a list of virtual servers available for another integration.
