Web application - start here

This package is mandatory for other components. It also has to be reachable by all agents you plan installing.

Continue here to get detailed info about web application setup, creating inital user etc. Execute this step and then continue from here.

After web application is set up, agents are added you need to add license to each agent. Unsigned license is generated in each machine and then signed by https://portal.intrudect.com/.

Continue here to understand license activation. After licenses are signed and agents restarted everything is ready. Kind of :)

Configuration tuning

Technically you have now working configuration. In practice it is important to finetune configuration so that events and chat messages are not filled with constant noise. This means that all events can either be fixed or informed decision is made to make exception in the configuration.
