What Is Agent/Agentless?
What Is Agent/Agentless?
We offer two options for every assessment.
- Agent
- You can deploy rapidly using your RMM
- You can leave Telivy deployed and “rescan” on demand
- You will generate the most comprehensive data
- You can convert a CSRA to “Monitoring” where Telivy will rescan and help build risk-over-time charts and graphs
- With Monitoring you can also set policies and receive alerts when a policy is violated
- Agentless (Non Agent)
- Recommended for new clients as it does not require any installation or uninstallation
- Link to executable can be sent on email, very useful for prospecting when you don’t have RMM setup to the devices to install agent
- It tries to run as admin, if no permission granted then runs as non admin
-
Non admin scan limitations
- PII scan done only for files accessible by the local use
- Browser history and passwords captured only for the local user
