THE CONCEPT OF KASPERSKY PURE

Kaspersky PURE is a program designed for comprehensive protection of computers within your home network. Kaspersky PURE includes the following functional modules:
My Computer Protection (see page 26), which protects your computer against known and unknown threats;
My Backup (see page 24), which quickly restores your data if data loss occurs;
My Encryption (see page 25), which protects your confidential data against unauthorized access;
My Parental Control (see page 25), which protects children and teenagers from threats related to computer and
Internet usage;
My Password Manager (see page 25), which ensures safe storage of passwords and other account data, and
confidentiality while filling various authorization forms;
My Control Center (see page 25), which allows to remotely manage the security of networked computers;
My System Tune-Up (see page 26), which is used for optimizing the operating system settings and performing
specific computer security tasks.

MY BACKUP

Data stored on a computer can be lost due to various issues, such as impact of a virus, information modification or deletion by another user, etc. To avoid losing important information, you should regularly back up data.
Backup copying creates backup copies of objects in a special storage on the selected device. To do so, you should configure backup tasks. After running the task manually or automatically, according to a schedule, backup copies of selected files are created in the storage. If necessary, the required version of the saved file can be restored from the backup copy. Thus, regular backup ensures additional security of data.

MY PARENTAL CONTROL

Parental Control is designed to protect children and teenagers from threats related to computer and Internet usage.
Parental Control allows a flexible limit of the access to resources and applications for different users depending on their age and experience. Besides, this function allows to view statistical reports about the users' actions.
The specified restrictions fall into three categories:
using the Internet;
instant messaging;
using the computer.

MY CONTROL CENTER

Home network often comprises several computers, which makes it difficult to manage network security. The vulnerability of one computer puts in jeopardy the whole network.
The Control Center allows starting virus scan tasks and update tasks for the whole network or for selected computers, manage the backup copying of data, and configure Parental Control settings on all computers within the network immediately from your workspace. This ensures remote security management of all computers within home network.

MY ENCRYPTION

Confidential information, which is saved in electronic mode, requires additional protection from unauthorized access. Storing data in an encrypted container provides this protection.
Data encryption allows creating special encrypted containers on the chosen drive. In the system, such containers are displayed as virtual removable drives. To access the data in the encrypted container, a password should be entered.

MY PASSWORD MANAGER

At the moment, registration and entering account data for authentication are required to access the majority of services and resources. For security reasons, it is not recommended to use identical user accounts for different resources, or write

down your user name and password. As a result, today's user is not able to remember huge amounts of account data, which makes safe storing of passwords particularly up-to-date.
Password Manager makes it possible to store different personal data in encrypted form (for example, user names, passwords, addresses, phone and credit card numbers). Data access is protected with a single Master Password. After entering the Master Password, Password Manager can automatically fill in the fields of different authorization forms. Thus, you should remember only one Master Password to manage all account data.

MY SYSTEM TUNE-UP

Ensuring computer's security is a difficult task that requires the expertise in operating system's features and in ways of exploiting its weak points. Additionally, volume and diversity of information about system security makes its analysis and processing difficult.
To facilitate solving specific tasks of providing computer security, Kaspersky PURE includes the following wizards and tools:
Browser Configuration Wizard (see page198), which performs the analysis of the Microsoft Internet Explorer settings by assessing them, primarily, in relation to the security.
System Restore Wizard (see page 199), which removes traces left by malicious objects in the system.
Privacy Cleaner Wizard (see page 204), which finds and removes traces of user's activities in the system, and
the operating system settings, which allow gathering information about the user's activities.
Rescue Disk (see page 199), which is designed to scan and disinfect infected x86-compatible computers. It
should be used when the infection is at such level that it is deemed impossible to disinfect the computer using anti-virus applications or malware removal utilities.
Permanently Delete Data (see page 202), which prevents unauthorized restoration of deleted files.
Unused Data Clearing Wizard (see page 203), which deletes temporary and unused files requiring considerable
volume of disk space or being at risk of a malware impact.

MY COMPUTER PROTECTION

Computer Protection protects your computer against known and new threats. Each type of threat is processed by a separate application component. This structure of the protection system allows a flexible configuration of the application, depending on the needs of any specific, or of an enterprise as a whole.
Computer Protection includes the following protection tools:
Protection components (see page 27), which ensure security for:
files and personal data;

network activity.
Virus scan tasks (on page 29) used to scan individual files, folders, drives, areas, or the entire computer for
viruses.
My Update Center (on page 29), which ensures the up-to-date status of internal application modules and
databases used to scan for malicious programs.

PROTECTION COMPONENTS

The following protection components provide defense for your computer in real time:
File Anti-Virus (see page 59)
File Anti-Virus monitors the file system of the computer. It scans all files that can be opened, executed or saved on your computer, and all connected disk drives. Computer Protection intercepts each attempt to access a file and scans such file for known viruses. The file can only be processed further if the file is not infected or is successfully treated by the application. If a file cannot be disinfected for any reason, it will be deleted, with a copy of it saved in the backup, or moved to the quarantine.
Mail Anti-Virus (see page 69)
Mail Anti-Virus scans all incoming and outgoing email messages on your computer. It analyzes emails for malicious programs. The email is available to the addressee only if it does not contain dangerous objects. The component also analyzes email messages to detect phishing.
Web Anti-Virus (see page 76)
Web Anti-Virus intercepts and blocks scripts on websites if they pose a threat. All HTTP traffic is also subject to a thorough monitoring. The component also analyzes web pages to detect phishing.
IM Anti-Virus (see page 83)
IM Anti-Virus ensures the safe use of Internet pagers. The component protects information that comes to your computer via IM protocols. IM Anti-Virus ensures safe operation of various applications for instant messaging.
Application Control (see page 86)
Application Control logs the actions performed by applications in the system, and manages the applications' activities, based on which group the component assigns them to. A set of rules is defined for each group of applications. These rules manage applications' access to various resources.
Firewall (see page 100)
Firewall ensures security for your work in local networks and on the Internet. The component filters all network activities using rules of two types: rules for applications and packet rules.
Proactive Defense (see page 107)
Proactive Defense allows to detect a new malicious program before it performs its malicious activity. The component is designed around monitoring and analyzing the behavior of all applications installed on your computer. Based on the actions being performed, Computer Protection makes a decision whether the application is potentially dangerous, or not. So your computer is protected not only from known viruses, but from new ones as well that still have not been discovered.
Network Attack Blocker (see page 110)
The Network Attack Blocker loads at the operating system startup, and tracks incoming network traffic for activities characteristic of network attacks. Once an attempt of attacking your computer is detected, Computer Protection blocks any network activity of the attacking computer towards your computer.
Anti-Spam (see page 113)
U S E R G U I D E

PROTECTION OF DATA AND ONLINE ACTIVITY

Computer Protection protects data stored on your computer against malware and unauthorized access, ensuring secure access to the local network and to the Internet.
Protected objects are divided into three groups:
Files, personal data, parameters of access to different resources (user names and passwords), information
about banking cards etc. Protection of these objects is provided by File Anti-Virus, Application Control and Proactive Defense.
Applications installed on your computer and operating system objects. Protection of these objects is provided by
Mail Anti-Virus, Web Anti-Virus, IM Anti-Virus, Application Control, Proactive Defense, Network Attack Blocker and Anti-Spam.
Online activity: using e-payment systems, email protection against spam and viruses etc. Protection of these
objects is provided by Mail Anti-Virus, Web Anti-Virus, IM Anti-Virus, Firewall, Network Attack Blocker, Anti­Spam, Network Monitor, Anti-Banner.

CONTROL OVER APPLICATIONS AND DATA ACCESS

Computer Protection prevents applications from executing actions which can endanger the system, monitors access to your personal data and provides the option of running applications in the safe mode. It is performed with the help of the following tools:
Application Activity Control (see page 86). The component logs the actions performed by applications in the
system, and manages the applications' activities, based on which group they belong to. A set of rules is defined for each group of applications. These rules manage applications' access to various resources.
Digital Identity Protection (see page 89). Application Control manages rights of applications to perform actions
on the user's personal data. They include files, folders and registry keys, which contain the settings and important data of the most frequently used applications, as well as user's files (My Documents folder, cookies, information about the user's activity).
Safe Run (see page 95). Computer Protection ensures the maximum security of operating system objects and
the user's personal data by running unknown applications in the protected virtual environment.

NETWORK MONITOR

Network Monitor is a tool used to view information about network activities in real time. To run Network Monitor, use the

Network Monitor link in the Computer Protection main window.
The window that will open will provide the information grouped on the following tabs:
The Connections and ports tab lists all the opened ports and active network connections currently established
on your computer.
The Firewall: rule processing log tab displays information about the use of packet rules for applications.
The Network traffic tab displays information on all inbound and outbound connections established between your
computer and other computers, including web servers, mail servers, etc.
The Blocked computers tab lists the blocked computers.

VIRUS SCAN TASKS

In addition to the constant protection of all the ways that malicious programs can penetrate, it is extremely important to periodically scan your computer for viruses. This is necessary in order to rule out the possibility of spreading malicious programs that have not been discovered by security components, for example, because the security level was set to low or for other reasons.
The following virus scan tasks are included in Computer Protection:
Objects Scan. Scan of objects selected by the user. You can scan any object in the computer's file system.
Full Scan. A thorough scan of the entire system. The following objects are scanned by default: system memory,
programs loaded on startup, system backup, email databases, hard drives, removable storage media and network drives.
Quick Scan. Virus scan of operating system startup objects.

UPDATE

To block any network attack, delete a virus or other malicious program, Kaspersky PURE should be regularly updated. The My Update Center component is designed for that purpose. It handles the update of application databases and modules used by the application.
The update distribution service allows saving databases and program modules updates downloaded from Kaspersky Lab servers to a local folder and then granting access to them to other computers on the network to reduce network traffic.
