Creating and editing the Application Startup Control rule
You can create Application Startup Control rules that allow local area network users to start applications from the categories that were created earlier on protected virtual machines.
To create or edit the Application Startup Control rule:
Open Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console.
In the Managed devices folder of the console tree, open the folder with the name of the administration group to which the relevant protected virtual machines belong.
In the workspace, select the Policies tab.
Select a Light Agent for Windows policy in the list of policies and open the Properties: <Policy name> by double-clicking.
In the Light Agent for Windows policy properties window, select the Application Startup Control section in the list on the left.
In the right part of the window, the settings of the Application Startup Control component are displayed.
Do one of the following:
To create a new rule, click the Add button.
If you want to edit the rule, select it in the list of rules and click the Edit button.
The Application Startup Control rule window opens.
In the Application category drop-down list, select the created application category based on which you want to create an Application Startup Control rule.
Specify the list of users and / or user groups that are allowed to start applications from the selected category. To do so, enter the names of users and / or groups manually in the Users and / or groups that are granted permission field or click the Select button.
The standard Select Users or Groups window in Microsoft Windows opens. This window lets you select users and / or user groups.
If you want Kaspersky Security to consider applications from the category that is specified in the rule as trusted updaters, and to allow them to start other applications for which no Application Startup Control rules are defined, select the Trusted updaters check box in the Application Startup Control rule window.
In the Application startup control rule window, click OK.
