Hey there, I would like to scan a USB stick and then a USB HDD which I am very confident both contain some form of malware. I would like some advice on the recommended steps to disinfect both these devices without risking infecting my machine. After consulting the documentation my current plan is: Create a custom RDS task, with a custom config file. Add the following to the config file: "BlockDuringScan" : "Yes", "ScanRemovableDrives" : "DetailedScan" Start the task. Insert the USB storage device. Only access the files on the USB storage device after checking that the task has completed. Repeat. Is this sufficent, or do I need to use other kesl features to further lock down the device when it is inserted? I did notice in the documentation on the BlockDuringScan setting that "while scanning boot sectors, files are not blocked". I am not familiar with the capabilities of modern malware; if I do not open the USB storage until after the scan has completed, does this pose no threat to my machines security? Also, love kesl so far, so good to see a great commercial program that supports linux :-)

Okay, thanks for the help :-)

Hey Demiad, thanks for your help with that :-) Can I launch the GUI from CLI using sudo?

Okay I have completed all the custom scan tasks I wanted to perform in the CLI, however the buttons are still grayed out after completion, so I'm not sure what the issue is, I would like to resolve this before I go ahead with the purchase as I would like to be able to navigate the GUI, especially reports.

Hey there, I just installed on Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Linux v11.4.0-1096 with the GIU for amd64 Debian. Installation and initial setup via CLI was successful, I chose the trial license, and then opened the GUI interface. The Settings and Storage buttons are grayed out in the GUI interface, and I noticed there is a (full system?) scan underway in the statistics section after selecting the Reports button. Are the buttons grayed out because a scan is currently underway?
