Hi @ameen abu siaf,

I would definitely recommed to install Kaspersky Security for Windows Server, it is tested on servers and its components are created for server OS versions specifically.

KES is running process “avpui.exe “(KES GUI) for every user on Terminal server and use up lots of system memory for many logged on users.

KSWS have “Anti-Cryptor (for shared folders)” component for anti-Ransomware protection.

Read more at the datasheet about feauters.

Hi,

KS for Windows Server is mandatory if you deal with terminal server infrastructures or clusterized ones.
Moreover the features provided by this product depend on the license you’re going to activate in: https://support.kaspersky.com/15634
IMHO, if those servers are not RDS\TS or members of a cluster you can choose between KS and KES. KS is developed for server OSs and in most cases is lighter than KES…..but KES (11.5) is providing an higher level of security expecially if we talk about cryptomalwares: in fact, KS, if i’m not wrong, does not provide any behaviour analisys component.
Bye
