The process of installing the Apex One (Mac) Security Agent on a single endpoint is similar to the installation process for other Mac software.
During the installation, users may be prompted to allow connections to iCoreService, which is used to register the Security Agent to the server. Instruct users to allow the connection when prompted.
For information on obtaining the package, see Agent Installation Methods and Setup Files.
The files on tmsminstall.zip may become corrupted if users launch it using archiving tools not built-in on the Mac.
To launch tmsminstall.zip from Terminal, use the following command:
ditto –xk <tmsminstall.zip file path> <destination folder>
For example:
ditto –xk users/mac/Desktop/tmsminstall.zip users/mac/Desktop
Launching tmsminstall.zip creates a new folder tmsminstall.
Specify the name and password for an account with administrative rights on the endpoint.
The Security Agent automatically registers to the server where the agent installation package was obtained. The Security Agent also updates for the first time.
Perform agent post-installation tasks. For details, see Agent Post-installation.
