About updates

Kaspersky Internet Security uses anti-virus databases when searching for malware. The anti-virus databases of the app contain descriptions of malware currently known to Kaspersky Lab and ways to neutralize it, as well as descriptions of other malicious objects. It is recommended to regularly update the databases.

As well as the anti-virus databases, Kaspersky Internet Security allows you to update the app version. Application version updates remove vulnerabilities from Kaspersky Internet Security, add new functions, or improve existing functions.

To update the app anti-virus databases, you must have an Internet connection configured on your device. 

If you download Kaspersky Internet Security from Google Play, the app updates anti-virus databases only. App version is updated via Google Play.
