CHAPTER 1. KASPERSKY®
ADMINISTRATION KIT
1.1. Purpose, structure and main
functions
Kaspersky® Administration Kit is an application that is designed to provide a
centralized solution for most important administration tasks associated with
managing the corporate network anti-virus security system based on Kaspersky
Lab’s applications included into Kaspersky Anti-Virus Business Optimal and
Kaspersky Corporate Suite. Kaspersky Administration Kit supports all network
configurations that use TCP/IP protocol.
Kaspersky Administration Kit is a tool for corporate network administrators and
anti-virus security officers.
The application enables the administrator to:
•

Deploy or remove Kaspersky Lab applications across a network connection to computers within the network. This feature enables the administrator to copy the required set of Kaspersky Lab's applications to a selected
computer and then deploy these applications on the network computers.

•

Ensure remote centralized management of Kaspersky Lab applications.
This feature enables the administrator to create a multi-level anti-virus
protection system and manage the operation of all applications from a
single administrator's workstation. This is particularly important for larger
companies that have a local network consisting of a large number of
computers that may cover several separate buildings or offices. This feature enables the administrator to:
•

group computers into administration groups based on the functions performed by such computers and the set of applications
installed on them;

•

configure the application settings in a centralized way by creating and applying group policies;

•

configure individual settings of the application for individual
computers using the application settings.

•

manage the operation of the applications in a centralized way
by creating and running group and global tasks.

6

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

•

create individual patterns for the application's operation by
creating and running tasks for a set of computers from different
administration groups.

•

Automatically update the anti-virus database and application modules on
computers. This feature allows centralized updating of the anti-virus database for all installed Kaspersky Lab's applications without accessing the
Kaspersky Lab's internet updates server for each individual update. The
updating can be performed automatically according to the schedule set up
by the administrator. The administrator can monitor the installation of the
updates on the client computers.

•

Receive reports using a dedicated system. This feature allows centralized
collection of statistical information about the operation of all installed
Kaspersky Lab's applications, monitoring the correctness of the operation
of these applications and creating reports based on the information obtained. The administrator can create a cumulative network report about
the operation of an application or reports about the operation of application installed on each computer.

•

Use events notification system. Mail notification sending system. This feature allows the administrator to create a list of events in the operation of
the applications about which he or she will receive notifications. The list of
such event may, for example, include detection of a new virus or an error
that occurred when attempting to update the anti-virus database on a
computer, detection of a new computer in the network.

•

Perform license management. This capability supports centralized installation of license keys for all installed enterprise applications, tracking of
compliance with the license agreement (number of licenses should correspond to number of running applications) and license agreement expiration date.

•

Cooperate with Cisco Network Admission Control (NAC). This functionality provides a mapping between host antivirus protection conditions and
Cisco NAC statuses.

Kaspersky Administration Kit application consists of three main components:
•

Administration server performs the function of centralized storage of information about Kaspersky Lab's applications installed in the corporate
network and about managing such applications.

•

Network Agent coordinates the interaction between the Administration
Server and Kaspersky Lab's applications installed on a specific network
node (a workstation or a server). This component supports all Windowsapplications included in the Kaspersky Lab Business Optimal and

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

7

Kaspersky Corporate Suites. Separate versions of Administration Agent
exist for Kaspersky Lab Novell and UNIX applications.
•

Administration Console provides a user interface to the administration
services of the Administration Server and Network Agent. The management module is implemented as the extension of the Microsoft Management Console (MMC).

CHAPTER 2. TYPICAL
SCHEMES OF DEPLOYMENT
OF ANTI-VIRUS
PROTECTION
2.1. Schemes of deployment of antivirus protection on the
computers within the logical
network
There are two common scenarios that show how you can deploy reliable antivirus protection using Kaspersky Administration Kit:
•

You can remotely install applications on client computers across the logical network from a single workstation. The installation and connection to
the remote management system proceed automatically, requiring no interaction from the administrator and allowing to install the anti-virus software on any number of client computers.

•

You can locally install applications on every networked computer. In this
case, all required components and the administrator workstation are
manually installed. Connection settings are set during the installation of
the Network Agent. This deployment scenario is used only if centralized
deployment is impossible.

Remote installation can be used for installation of any applications selected by
the user.
However, bear in mind that Kaspersky Administration Kit supports
administration of only Kaspersky Lab's application the distribution package of
which includes a specialized component - the application administration plugin.

12

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

2.2. Building a centralized anti-virus
protection administration
system
The first step to building a system of centralized management over an enterprise
network through Kaspersky Administration Kit is to design a logical network. At
this stage, you should make the following decisions:
1.

Select isolated sections within the network and determine the
number of Administration servers that must be installed. The use of
hierarchy of administration servers will allow to considerably
decrease the load on the communication channels and increase
the system reliability.

2.

Which computers in the corporate network structure will function as
the main Administration server, the slave servers administrator
servers, administrator's workstations, and client computers. Note
that all computers on which Kaspersky Lab applications are
installed will act as client computers.

3.

Which criteria will be used to organize client computers in groups?
What will be the group hierarchy?

4.

Which deployment scenario will be used: remote or local
installation?

During the next stage, the administrator has to build a logical network, i.e., install
the following Kaspersky Administration Kit components on networked computers,
namely:
1.

Install the Administration Servers on computers within the
corporate network.

2.

Install the Administration Console on computers from which the
administration will be provided.

3.

Make decision regarding assigning of the logical network
administrators, determine which other user categories will interact
with the system and assign a list of functions to be performed to
each category.

4.

Create lists of users and grant to each group access rights required
to perform functions assigned to this group and related to access
rights.

Typical Schemes of Deployment of anti-virus protection

13

After this, it is required to create a hierarchy of the Administration servers and for
each Server create a logical network structure as follows: create a hierarchy of
the administration groups and distribute computers among the corresponding
groups.
During the next stage, you should install the Network Agent and selected
Kaspersky Lab applications on client computers and install the corresponding
administration plugins on the administrator workstation.
If you use the remote installation option, the Network agent may be installed
together with any application, in this case no separate installation of the Network
agent is required.
During the final step, you should configure the installed applications by assigning
and applying group policies and creating tasks.
Using the Quick Start Wizard, the administrator can easily build an anti-virus
protection system for his/her network and perform minimum configuration. Briefly
configuring the anti-virus protection system means creating a logical network
identical to the domain structure of the Windows network and the anti-virus
protection system based on versions 5.0 and 6.0 of Kaspersky Anti-Virus for
Windows Workstations.

CHAPTER 3. INSTALLING
KASPERSKY
ADMINISTRATION KIT
Before starting the installation, make sure that the computer meets the software
and hardware requirements to the Administration Server and the Administrator's
workstation (see section 1.3 on page 9).
MSDE (Microsoft Data Engine), MySQL server or Microsoft SQL server is used
to store the Administration Server information. If no MSDE or SQL server is
installed, you have to install one of them before installing the Administration
Server. In order to do it, you can use the distribution packages you have. In order
to install MSDE you can also use Kaspersky Administration Kit distribution
package. The MSDE installation procedure from the Kaspersky Administration Kit
is discussed in detailed below (see section 3.1 on page 15).
For installation of Kaspersky Administration Kit the local administrator's rights are
required for the computer on which the installation is performed.
The setup wizard will offer you to install the application components of Kaspersky
Administration Kit (the Administration Server and Administration Console) on the
computer on which the setup wizard is run. Such configuration is recommended
at the initial stage of creating the centralized administration system.
All the required ports should be open on a host computer for installed application
components to work properly. A listing of default ports used by Kaspersky
Administration Kit is given in Table 1.

To install MSDE:
1.

Run the executable file in the MSDE2KSP3 directory on the
Kaspersky Administration Kit 5.0 installation CD. The installation
wizard will then suggest that you configure settings and run the
application. Follow the setup wizard’s instructions.

2.

First steps are common and include unpacking required files from
the distribution package and copying them to the hard drive of your
computer, verification of the required software, accepting the
license agreement and providing information about the user and the
company.

3.

Then define the following in the Installation folder dialog box:
•

in the Application modules field - the folder for installation of
the MSDE application files. The default folder is:
 window (see Figure 20). This
window opens using the Properties shortcut menu command or the analogous
item in the Action menu.
The installation packages created can be distributed on the slave Administration
Servers (see section 4.1.4 on page 49) and on the computers within a group
using the updating agents (see section 4.1.6 on page 51).
One installation package can be reused many times to create deployment tasks.
Applications may also be installed in non-interactive mode.

4.1.1. Creating an installation package

5. After this the required set of files for the installation of the specified
application onto the client computers will be downloaded to shared folder
on the Administration Server and a check whether the administration
plugin for the selected application is installed on the administrator's
workstation will be performed. If such plugin is not installed or its version
is older than the version included into the distribution package, the new
plugin will be installed and the old plugin will be replaced.
Upon the completion of the wizard, the installation package created will be added
to the Remote installation node and displayed in the results pane.

4.1.2. Reviewing and configuring the

4.1.3. Creating and configuring the
Network Agent installation package
The installation package for the remote installation of the Network Agent does
not have to be created manually. It is created automatically during the installation
of Kaspersky Administration Kit and located in the Remote installation node.

46

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

If the package for the remote installation of the Network Agent has been deleted,
then in order to create it again, select file klnagent.kpd located in the NetAgent
folder of the Kaspersky Administration Kit distribution package to be used as the
file that contains the description
The settings of the Network Agent installation contain a minimum set of settings
required to ensure the functioning of the component immediately following its
installation. The values of the settings match the values of the default application
settings. If required, these can be changed using the Settings and the
Administration Group tabs of the installation package properties window.
The Settings tab (see Figure 21) contains settings used by the Network agent
after it is installed on the client computers to connect to the Administration Server
(by default, values of the current server will be used during the creation).
•

Address of the computer on which the Administration Server is installed.

•

Number of port used for unsecured connection to the Administration
Server. By default port 14000 is used. If this port is busy, you can change
it.

•

Number of port used for secure connection to the Administration Server
using SSL protocol. By default port 13000 is used.
Only decimal representation is allowed.

•

Certificate file for authentication of the access to the Administration
Server. The value of this setting is determined by the Use the Server
Certificate box.
If the box is not checked by default, the certificate file will be automatically
obtained from the Administration Server when the Agent connects to it for
the first time.
If the Use Server Certificate box is checked, authentication will be
performed based on the certificate file specified using the Browse button.
This file has extension .cer and is located in the Cert folder of the
Kaspersky Administration Kit installation folder. You can change the
certificate file by selecting the file you need using the Browse button.

•

Which port will be used by the Network Agent to connection to the Server:
simple or secure. The value of this setting is determined by the Use SSL
connection box. If the box is checked, the connection is performed via a
secure port using SSL protocol, if the box is unchecked, the connection is
performed via an unsecured port.

•

The proxy server connection settings. If a proxy server is used by the
Network Agent to connect to the Server, check the Use proxy server

Installation and Removal of Software on the Computers

47

box. After this press the Settings button and in the window that will open
enter the proxy server address, user name and the password.
•

Opening UDP Port 137 used to obtain Administration Server IP address in
Kaspersky Antivirus 6.0 Anti-Hacker. Check Enable NetBIOS in
Kaspersky Antivirus 6.0 Anti-Hacker.

•

Adding a UDP port required by the Administration Agent to the Microsoft
Windows firewall exceptions list. Check Open Administration Agent
Ports on Microsoft Windows Firewall.

After the installation of the Network Agent you can change the values of the
settings used to connect to the Administration Server using the policy and the
application's settings.
If you remotely reinstall the Network Agent on the client computer the values of
the settings used to connect to the Server and the Administration server
certificate will be replaced with new ones.
The Administration Group tab (cf. Figure 25) is used to define a subgroup of
the Network group into which computers will be added after the Network Agent
has been installed on them. You can select of the following options:
•

add computers to folders Corresponding to the computer position in
the Windows network: domain or a work group (this option is selected
by default);

•

add all computers In group specified in the entry field. If you select this
option, enter the name of the folder in the field below. If the Network
group does not contain such folder, it will be created (you can also indicate the name of any existing folder in the Network group).
This folder will be used to store all computers newly detected in the
network; even if a computer had previously been detected by the
Administration Server and put into the folder corresponding to its
position within the network before the installation of the Network Agent.
Computers detected in the network prior to the installation of the
Network Agent will remain in their old positions in the Network group.

After the installation of the Network Agent you can not change the folder to store
the computers in the Network group as this setting is not included into the policy
and the application settings.

7. To exit the wizard when it is completed, press the Finish button.

4.1.6. Distribution of the installation
packages within a group using
network agents
In order to distribute installation packages within a group, you can use updating
agents. The updating agents receive installation packages and updates from the
Administration Server and save them in the Kaspersky Lab's application
installation folder.
The location of the folder that contains the updates and the installation
packages cannot be changed; its size cannot be restricted.
Later the installation packages will be distributed to the client computers using
the multi-address delivery. Delivery of the new installation packages within a
group is only performed once. If at the moment of the delivery a client computer
was disconnected from the corporate logical network, then when the installation
task is run the Network Agent will automatically download the required
installation package from the updating agent.

52

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

In order to create the list of the updating agents and configure them to distribute
installation packages to computers within a group,

Figure 28. Updating agent properties windowCreating a remote installation task

When this task is executed, remote installation of software on the client
computers is performed using one of the two methods: forced installation or
installation using the startup scenario.
Forced installation allows performing the remote installation of software on the
specific client computers within the logical network. When the task is run, the
Administration Server will copy from the shared folder a set of files required to
install the application to each client computer in the temporary folder and
launches the installer application on each computer. In order to successfully
perform the forced installation task the Administration Sever must have the rights
of the local administrator on the client computers within the logical network. This
method is recommended for installation of applications onto computers running

54

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

Microsoft Windows NT/2000/2003/XP that support such ability or onto computers
running Microsoft Windows 98/Me on which the Network Agent is installed.
If the connection between the Administration Server and the client computer is
established via Internet or is protected by a firewall, shared folders cannot be
used to transfer data. In this case the files required to install the application to
the client computer can be delivered by the Network Agent. The Network Agent
is installed on such computers locally.
The second method - installation using the startup scenario - allows to assign
a remote installation task to a specific user (or several users') account. As the
result of the task execution, a record about launching the installer application will
be entered into the startup scenario for the selected users. The installer
application is located in the shared folder on the Administration Server. In order
to ensure successful task execution, the account under which it is run or the
Administration Server must have the right to modify the startup scenarios in the
domain controller database. As the results of the user registration with the
domain an attempt will be made to install the application on the client computer
from which the user has registered. This method is recommended for installation
of the Kaspersky Lab's applications onto the computers running MS Windows
98/Me.
In order to ensure successful execution of the remote installation task using the
startup scenario, users for which changes are made in the scenarios, must
have the local administrator's rights on their respective computers.
Group tasks for remote software installation onto the client computers are
executed using the forced installation method only. When creating a global task,
you can select the method you require: the forced installation or installation using
the startup scenario.
In order to create a global task for remote installation using the forced installation
method:
1.

Connect to the required Administration Server.

2.

Select the Global tasks node in the console tree, open the shortcut
menu and select the New / Task command or use the analogous item in
the Action menu. This will start the task creation wizard. Follow its
instructions.

3.

Specify the task name.

4.

When selecting the application and the task type (see Figure 29), specify
values Kaspersky Administration Kit and Remote application
installation respectively.

Installation and Removal of Software on the Computers

55

5.

After this, specify the installation package that will be installed during the
execution of this task (see Figure 30). Select the required package from
the packages created for the particular Administration Server or create a
new package using the New… button.
Some applications that support administration via Kaspersky
Administration Kit can be installed on the computers only locally.
Detailed information see Guides to the corresponding applications.

In this wizard window (see Figure 32) you will be offered to determine
additional installation settings.
•

Whether the application must be reinstalled if it has already
been installed on the computer.
Check the Do not install application if it is already installed
box in order to prevent repeated installation (by default the box
is checked). In this case for the computers on which the
application is installed locally or as the result of previous
scheduled launch of the remote installation task, the task will
not be launched.
If the box is unchecked, the remote installation task will be
launched by scheduled until the maximum number of attempts
to install the application has been reached.

•

To specify the method for delivery of the files required to install
the application on the client computers.
In order to do it, perform the following in the Downloading the
installation package group of fields:

•

o

Check the Using Microsoft Windows resources from
public access folder box if you wish that the transfer of
the files required to install the application to the client computers is performed using Windows tools and the shared
folders (by default this box is checked).

o

Check the Using Administration Agent box so that the
files are delivered to the client computers by the Network
Agent installed on each computer (by default this box is
checked).

o

In the The maximum number of simultaneous
downloads field specify the maximum number of client
computers that can download information from the Administration Sever.

Specify the number of attempts to perform the installation in
case of a scheduled task launched by entering the required
value in the Number of attempts field. Repeated attempts are
made in case of an error during the execution in the course of
the previous installation.

order to perform local installation you must have the administrator's right for the
local computer.
Some applications that support administration using Kaspersky Administration
Kit can be installed on computers only locally. Details see Guides to the
corresponding applications.
General procedure for the software installation during local deployment of the
anti-virus protection system can be as follows:
•

install the Network Agent and configure the connection between the client
computer and the Administration Server (see section 4.3.1 on page 76);

76

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

•

install the required applications on the computer that will be included into
the anti-virus protection system according to the description in the corresponding Guides;

•

install the administration plugin for each of the installed Kaspersky Lab's
applications into the administrator's workstation (see section 4.3.2 on
page 81).

Kaspersky Administration Kit support local application installation in noninteractive mode based on the files created during installation package creation
(see section 4.3.3 on page 82).

4.3.1. Local installation of the Network
Agent
In order to locally install the Network Agent on the computer:
1. Run file setup.exe (or setup.msi) located on the distribution CD of the
Kaspersky Administration Kit application in folder NetAgent. The
installation process is facilitated by the wizard. The wizard will offer you to
configure the installation settings. Follow its instructions.
2. First steps of the installation process are the usual procedure and involve
unpacking required files from the distribution package and copying them
on the hard drive of your computer, accepting the license agreement and
providing information about the user and the company.
3. Then you have to define the Network Agent installation folder. The default
installation folder is Program Files\Kaspersky Lab\NetworkAgent. If
such folder does not exist, it will be created automatically. To change the
folder use the Browse… button.
4. In the next wizard window (see Figure 50) you will have to configure
settings used by the Network Agent to connect to the Administration
Server. In order to do this define the following:
•

address of the computer on which the Administration Server is
or will be installed. The computer's IP address or name in the
Windows network can be used as the computer address. Alternatively, you can select the computer using the Browse button.

•

whether UDP Port 137, used to obtain Administration Server IP
address needs to be opened in Kaspersky Antivirus 6.0 AntiHacker. If so, check Enable NetBIOS Name Service in
Kaspersky Antivirus 6.0 Anti-Hacker.

Installation and Removal of Software on the Computers

77

•

the port number using which the Network Agent will connect to
the Administration Server. By default port 14000 will be used. If
it has been assigned, you can change it. Only decimal representation is allowed.

•

port number that will be used for secure connection to the
Administration Server using SSL protocol. By default port 13000
port is used. If it has been assigned, you can change it. Only
decimal representation is allowed. In order to make sure that
the connection is using a secured port (using SSL protocol)
check the Use SSL to connect to server box.

Figure 50. Configuring settings used to connect to the Administration Server

5. If the Network Agent connects to the Server via a proxy server (see
Figure 51)l, configure the corresponding connection settings:
•

Check the Use a proxy server to connect to the Administration Kit Server box and enter the address and the name of the
port to connect to the proxy server. Only decimal notation is allows (for example: Proxy address: proxy.test.com; Port: 8080).

•

If a password is used to access the proxy server, fill in the
Proxy login and the Proxy password fields.

If no proxy server is used, skip this step by pressing the Next button.

78

Figure 51. Configuring the connection settings via a proxy server

6. After this, determine which folder of the Network group the computer
must be added to after it is detected by the Administration Server during
the Windows network polling. Select one of the following options: (see
Figure 52):
•

Default group name - the computer will be added to the folder
that corresponds to its position in the Windows network: domain
or the workgroup (this is the default option).

•

Define group name - the computer will be added to the folder
specified in the Group name field. If you select this option, enter the folder name. If such folder does not exist in the Network
group, it will be created (you can specify the name of any of the
folders existing in the Network group).

Installation and Removal of Software on the Computers

79

Figure 52. Selecting the group in the Network folder to store the computers

7. During the next stage (see Figure 53) you have to specify the method you
would like to use to receive the certificate of the Administration Server's to
which the Network Agent will connect. Select one of the following options:
•

Default certificate - the Administration Server's certificate will
be received when the Network Agent connects to it for the first
time (this is the default options);

•

Select certificate file - authentication at the Administration
Server will be performed based on the certificate specified by
the administrator. If you select this option, specify the Administration Server's certificate file to be used.
The certificate file has extension .cer and is located on the
Administration Server in the Cert folder in the Kaspersky
Administration Kit installation folder.
You can copy the certificate file to the shared folder or onto a
disk and use a copy of the file to install the Network Agent.

80

certificate

8. In the final wizard window (see Figure 54) you will be offered to run the
Network Agent immediately after the wizard is complete. If you would like
to run it later, uncheck the Launch Network Agent box checked by
default.
If you are planning to use the hard drive of the computer on which the Network
Agent is installed in order to create a disk image and deploy it on other
computers, the Launch Network Agent box must be unchecked.

Installation and Removal of Software on the Computers

81

Figure 54. Configuring the launch of the Network Agent

After the wizard is complete, the Network Agent will be installed on your
computer.
You can review the properties of the Kaspersky Network Agent service, start,
stop or monitor it using the standard Windows administration tools - Computer
Management → Services.
A plugin for cooperation with Cisco Network Admission Control (NAC) is always
installed to a host together with an Administration Agent. The plugin is invoked if
the Cisco Trust Agent application is installed.

4.3.2. Local installation of the application
administration plugin
In order to install the application administration plugin,
on the computer on which the Administration Console is installed, run
executable file klcfginst.exe, located on the application's distribution CD.
This file is included into all applications that can be administered via
Kaspersky Administration Kit. The installation is facilitated by a wizard
and does not require any configuration. It will offer you to configure the
installation settings and start it.

82

Kaspersky® Administration Kit

The file of the administration plugin for the Network Agent klcfginst.exe
is located in the NetAgent folder of the distribution package of
Kaspersky Administration Kit

4.3.3. Installing applications in noninteractive mode
In order to install an application in non-interactive mode:
1. Create the required installation package (see section4.1.1xx) if the
installation package for the application you would like to install has not
been created.
Installation packages will be saved in some shared folder under the
Administration Server Packages system directory when the
Administration Server is being installed. A subfolder will correspond to
each installation package.
2. Configure installation package settings as required.
3. Install application using one of the methods below:
Copy the entire folder corresponding to the desired installation package
from the Administration Server to the client. Open the copied folder on the
client and start the executable (file with the .exe extension) using the /s
switch.
Access the shared folder for the desired installation package on the
Administration Server from the client. Then start the executable with the
/s switch.
4. Run executable file setup.exe with modifier /s included into the
distribution package of the application being installed, on the
computer onto which you plan to install the application using noninteractive mode.
Installation packages are stored on the Administration Server in
the shared folder specified during the Administration Server
installation stage, in service folder Packages.
When installing Kaspersky Administration Kit non-interactively, an answer
file may be used. This file contains all the application install parameters
and enables the application to be installed more than once with the same
parameters.

Installation and Removal of Software on the Computers

83

To generate a Kaspersky Administration Kit answer file:
1. Use the command line to go to the folder containing a Kaspersky
Administration Kit distribution and run the executable with switches
/r and /f1"\setup.iss"2 (for example, setup.exe /r
/f1"C:\setup.iss").
•
2.

This will start the application installation wizard on the host
computer.
Follow the prompts offered by the wizard to configure application
installation settings. For example, Administration Server or Console
only may be selected for installation.

Once the installation is complete, the selected version of Kaspersky
Administration Kit will have been installed on the host computer, and an answer
file will have been generated and placed in the specified directory. The resulting
answer file should be copied into the relevant installation package folder on the

1.1.1
The Software is “in use” on a Client Device when it is loaded into the
temporary memory (i.e., random-access memory or RAM) or installed into the
permanent memory (e.g., hard disk, CD-ROM, or other storage device) of that
Client Device. This license authorizes you to make only as many back-up copies
of the Software as are necessary for its lawful use and solely for back-up
purposes, provided that all such copies contain all of the Software’s proprietary
notices. You will maintain records of the number and location of all copies of the
Software and Documentation and will take all reasonable precautions to protect
the Software from unauthorized copying or use.
1.1.2
If you sell the Client Device on which the Software is installed, you will
ensure that all copies of the Software have been previously deleted.
1.1.3
You shall not decompile, reverse engineer, disassemble or otherwise
reduce any party of this Software to a humanly readable form nor permit any
third party to do so. The interface information necessary to achieve
interoperability of the Software with independently created computer programs
will be provided by Kaspersky Lab on request on payment of its reasonable costs
and expenses for procuring and supplying such information. In the event
Kaspersky Lab notifies you that it does not intend to make such information
available for any reason, including (without limitation) costs, you shall be
permitted to take such steps to achieve interoperability provided that you only
reverse engineer or decompile to the extent permitted by law.
1.1.4
You shall not permit any third party to copy (other than as expressly
permitted herein), make error corrections to, or otherwise modify, adapt, or
translate the Software nor create derivative works of the Software.
1.1.5
You shall not rent, lease or lend the Software to any other person, nor
transfer or sub-license your license rights to any other person.
1.1.6
You shall not use this Software in automatic, semi-automatic or manual
tools designed to create virus signatures, virus detection routines, any other data
or code for detecting malicious code or data.
1.2
Server-Mode Use. You may use the Software on a Client Device or on
or as a server (“Server”) within a multi-user or networked environment (“ServerMode”) only if such use is permitted in the applicable price list or application

Appendix C

packaging for the Software. A separate license is required for each Client Device
or “seat” that may connect to the Server at any time, regardless of whether such
licensed Client Devices or seats are concurrently connected to or actually
accessing or using the Software. Use of software or hardware that reduces the
number of Client Devices or seats directly accessing or utilizing the Software
(e.g., “multiplexing” or “pooling” software or hardware) does not reduce the
number of licenses required (i.e., the required number of licenses would equal
the number of distinct inputs to the multiplexing or pooling software or hardware
“front end”). If the number of Client Devices or seats that can connect to the
Software exceeds the number of licenses you have obtained, then you must
have a reasonable mechanism in place to ensure that your use of the Software
does not exceed the use limits specified for the license you have obtained. This
license authorizes you to make or download such copies of the Documentation
for each Client Device or seat that is licensed as are necessary for its lawful use,
provided that each such copy contains all of the Documentation proprietary
notices.
1.3
Volume Licenses. If the Software is licensed with volume license terms
specified in the applicable application invoicing or packaging for the Software,
you may make, use or install as many additional copies of the Software on the
number of Client Devices as the volume license terms specify. You must have
reasonable mechanisms in place to ensure that the number of Client Devices on
which the Software has been installed does not exceed the number of licenses
you have obtained. This license authorizes you to make or download one copy of
the Documentation for each additional copy authorized by the volume license,
provided that each such copy contains all of the Document’s proprietary notices.
2.
Duration. This Agreement is effective for the period specified in the Key
File (the unique file which is required to fully enable the Software, please see
Help/ about Software or Software about, for Unix/Linux version of the Software
see the notification about expiration date of the Key File) unless and until earlier
terminated as set forth herein. This Agreement will terminate automatically if you
fail to comply with any of the conditions, limitations or other requirements
described herein. Upon any termination or expiration of this Agreement, you
must immediately destroy all copies of the Software and the Documentation. You
may terminate this Agreement at any point by destroying all copies of the
Software and the Documentation.

forth in this Agreement.
5.
