Once the settings are defined, click the "Save" button, and the system will redirect to the download page. Click the "Download Installer" button to download the agent. This action will start to download the installer. After downloading the installer, please download the config file with the "Download Config File" button. The agent (.pkg) and the config file must be downloaded and they need to be in the folder. To install the agent, please double-click on the downloaded pkg file. The installation will start automatically. Alternatively, the below command can be used.
After installing the agent, the machine information can be seen under the "Asset Management" -> "Endpoint Management".
Once the agents appear in the Endpoint Management, add them to the Linux Servers Group. Please navigate to "Rules & Policies" -> "Policy Management" -> "Group Management". Select the group named "macOS Devices Group". Assign the policy to the required field and click on the "Save" button placed below on the page.
In some cases, users need to edit/create a new policy. For a new policy please navigate to "Rules & Policies" -> "Policy Management" -> "Policy Rules" and click on the "+ Policy" button. Edit the field as needed and save the policy. After successfully creating a policy, go to "Group Management" and select the "macOS Devices Group". Assign the policy to the group.
When policies are assigned to the groups, data collection starts. Users must wait for the next iteration of the collection to see the results.
Please navigate to "Asset Management" -> "Endpoint Management" on the portal. All machines are synced with the table; users can observe the machine/agent information from there.
Agents should be able to access CyberCyte Server on Port 443 and https://download.cloudcyte.com websites. If the agent is not shown here, please check access to the portal on the client first. If the entry is successful, please wait for communication interval settings.
Using Shell:
Execute these commands in the shell:
sudo usr/local/bin/ CyberCyteAgent --uninstall
Disabling the Agent:
Go to the "Asset Management" -> "Endpoint Management" on the portal. Right-click on the machine and disable the agent. This action only disables agent data collection, the agent will update itself but not collect any data.
