The instructions described in this article cannot be used to protect resources located in the network. No matter if the file location is specified as a mapped drive or a UNC path, files on network shares will not be protected. To protect files located in the network, use special solutions. For example, Kaspersky Security for Windows Server.
Make sure the Behavior Detection, Remediation Engine and Automatic Exploit Prevention components are enabled in the settings.
The Host Intrusion Prevention has been set up for protection against file-encrypting malware.
Before installing patches for Kaspersky Lab solutions, it is necessary to temporarily restore initial settings. If your browser is located in a group with high or low restrictions it will not be possible to download protected files.

The Host Intrusion Prevention has been set up for protection against file-encrypting malware. If a malicious file is run on a managed computer, Kaspersky Security Center will register that event. To track the events, go to Administration Server → Events.
If the Administration Server registers too many events, the oldest will be overwritten.
To use all the functions of Kaspersky Security Center Remote Diagnostic Utility, restore initial settings or disable the Host Intrusion Prevention component.
