Changing and restoring security level

Depending on your actual needs, you can select one of the preset file/memory security levels or configure File Anti-Virus on your own.

Kaspersky Lab advises you not to configure Mail Anti-Virus settings on your own. In most cases, it is enough to select a different security level.

When configuring File Anti-Virus, you can always roll back to the recommended values. These settings are considered optimal, recommended by Kaspersky Lab, and grouped in the Recommended security level.

To change the preset email security level:

1. Open the application settings window.
2. In the left part of the window, in the Protection Center section, select the Mail Anti-Virus component.
3. In the right part of the window, in the Security level section, set the required security level, or click the Settings button to modify the settings manually.

If you modify the settings manually, the name of the security level will change to Custom.

To restore default mail protection settings:

1. Open the application settings window.
2. In the left part of the window, in the Protection Center section, select the Mail Anti-Virus component.
3. Click the Default button in the Security level section in the right part of the window.
