Creating and Configuring Profiles

During installation of Dr.Web, the Default profile, which cannot be renamed or deleted, is created automatically. This profile will remain active for all the traffic as long as you do not create a new profile and assign it to a certain group of clients. When you create a new profile, it has current settings of the Default profile.

To manage the existing profiles and create the new ones, the Profiles pane is used. To open it, select Profiles in the Dr.Web Administrator Web Console tree (see Figure 2).
