Kaspersky Endpoint Security V12.2.0.694 on MacOS26.2 CPU running high

[ipcitsupport]

We are experiencing an issue with Kaspersky Endpoint Security for macOS v12.2.0.694 running on macOS 26.2 on a MacBook with  M4 CPU.

The Kaspersky process consistently consumes more than 90% CPU(No problem at all with MacOS15.),which significantly degrades system performance and the device nearly unusable, even for basic tasks.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue in this environment? If so, are there any known workarounds, configuration changes, or fixes to mitigate the high CPU usage?
