Options

Self-defense

Enable Self-Defense: turns on/off the Self-Defense, a mechanism used by KIS to prevent its own files and registry keys from being altered. Disabling the Self-Defense mechanism is not recommended.

Disable external service control: check/uncheck this box to block/allow any attempts to control the program from remote computers.

Compatibility

Enable advanced disinfection technology: turns on/off the advanced disinfection method. This method is used to remove the memory-resident malware on machine reboot.

Disable scheduled scans while running on battery power: if you are using the application on a laptop computer, then select this option to skip any scheduled scanning processes while running on battery power.

Concede resources to other applications: if this box is checked, the scanning process will pause if required, in order to free system resources for other critical processes.
