KasperskySecurity for Windows Server

Based on Kaspersky's unique HuMachine framework, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server's multi-layered threat protection system detects all types of malware, including advanced, sophisticated and emerging threats. Despite its power, it has minimal impact on server performance and provides different optimization capabilities depending on server role (for example, by configuring application priority or excluding business-critical trusted processes from scanning).

Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) delivers a faster-than-ever response to new threats, improving the performance of protection components and minimizing the risk of false positives.

Kaspersky Security for Windows Server comprises a powerful Exploit Prevention mechanism that protects process memory from exploits. It watches over protected processes and prevents attempts to exploit unpatched or even zero-day vulnerabilities in system components and applications.

The most reliable resilience against data breaches is attained by implementing the Default Deny scenario using Application Launch Control. By prohibiting the use of any application other than trusted system components and specified programs or services, most malware types are automatically blocked from starting. Together with Device Control running in Default Deny mode ruling out the use of any unsolicited storage, these components considerably reduce the attack surface and boost the security of the server protected by Kaspersky.

Making sure critical system components and processes (as well as mission-critical applications) remain intact is as important for the server's smooth functioning as for the security of the sensitive data processed on it.

Kaspersky Security for Windows Server takes care of this, providing features such as File Integrity Monitor and Log Inspection which help to not only prevent unwanted changes to the system but also to detect certain indicators of a security breach and complying with a number of regulations such as PCI/DSS.

Kaspersky Security for Windows Server protects a wide range of remote access environments including Microsoft Terminal Services and Citrix XenApp/Xen Desktop:

• End users sessions in desktop publishing modes remain secured against malware threats, including ransomware. The new Traffic Security component of Kaspersky Security for Windows Server provides anti-virus and anti-phishing protection for web and mail traffic on the Terminal Server.
• Security controls, specifically Application and Web Controls with Kaspersky categories restrict the use of unsolicited resources, reducing the risk of a data breach.

The rapid spread of Docker-based container virtualization requires specific protection, taking into account containers using the same kernel as other server processes. Kaspersky Security for Windows Servers secures Windows Server containers, making sure that compromised containers you may encounter won't harm your business

Kaspersky Security for Windows Server delivers reliable security for any kind of virtualized or hybrid infrastructure - private, hosted or in a public cloud.

This new system delivers traffic malware filtering, web links verification and web-resource control, based on Kaspersky categories for any external system supporting the ICAP protocol like proxy servers, storage or any other ICAP-supporting system.
