There are several ways to deploy Cybersmart Active Protect. Still, individual enrollment is preferred for businesses not using Microsoft Group Policy Objects or other Mobile device Management (MDM) or Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) applications. This refers to companies with user-managed devices and bring-your-own devices (BYOD).Individuale
Individual Enrollment
Individual enrollment allows the administrators to send end users and install links via email. The end user then follows the instructions to install the software. To invite users to install CyberSmart Active Protect through individual enrollment, add the new user and select Desktop as the Active Protect version. Then, a link will be sent automatically to the user's email to facilitate the installation.
If you need to resend Active Protect, please go to the relevant user's device page, click Resend Active Protect, and select Desktop as the Active Protect version.
Bulk/Centralised Deployment
This deployment method uses the same installer for all users within the organisation. The installer can be downloaded directly from the Dashboard. You can choose any centralised tool of your choice to automate this deployment such as Group Policy Objects (GPO), RMM or MDM tools.
For RMM tools - set Silent Install Switches & Silent Uninstall Switches to --NoUI
