CHAPTER 10. NOTIFICATIONS
Kaspersky Security allows notifying about revealed infected objects and about
messages that contain SPAM.
Notifications can be delivered using the following methods:
•
by sending e-mail messages;
•
by sending messages using Net Send tools;
•
by registering the event in the Microsoft Windows event log on the
computer where the Security Server component is installed. In this case,
access to the information will be provided using
Events Viewer
, a
standard Microsoft Windows tool used for viewing and managing the logs.
There is a provision to notify the sender and the recipient of the message about
the infected object or about blocking the message containing SPAM attributes.
No notifications are sent to the recipients of blind carbon copies (Bcc).
The procedure used for notification, the method of distribution and the text of the
messages sent are created by the administrator in the form of a notification
template.
When a certain event occurs, an automatic notification of the corresponding type
is issued based on such template.
Several templates of the same type but with different parameter values may be
created which allows creating notifications for the administrator, sender, recipient
and security services that vary as far as the content and the delivery method are
concerned.
By default, notification template informing about found infected objects is
generated during Security Server installation. Notification using this template is
not issued. You can configure notification using this template as the basis.
Notification templates are stored in the
Notification templates
service folder.
This folder is included into each node that reflects the managed Exchange
server.
The list of created notification templates is provided in the form of a table (see
Figure 28). The table contains the name of the template, notification type and
status for each template (enabled or disabled).
