Event log

Various events occur during the operation of Kaspersky Security. They reflect changes in the status of Kaspersky Security. Information about these events is stored in the Event log.

The application keeps the Event log in the system log of the operating system (syslog) in the Mail category. If necessary, you can change the category of the system log in which the application should log events. The application designates Kaspersky Security events with the abbreviation KLMS to distinguish them from other events stored in the Mail category.

Events can have the following levels of importance:

  • Error – events involving application errors.
  • Info – informational events. At this level, the log stores email addresses of senders and receivers, the IP address of the computer transmitting the message, as well as detailed information on message scan results.

By default, the application logs only error events (i.e., events with the Error level of importance) in the event log (see table below). You can configure all application events to be recorded in the log.
