Enrollment via Manual Download

⌘K

Manual enrollment is a straightforward way to onboard devices by downloading and installing the Zecurit agent directly. This method is ideal for IT admins managing a small number of devices, testing the platform or enrolling endpoints without domain.

Where to Begin

To enroll a device manually:

  1. Log in to the Zecurit portal
  2. Go to the Enrollment → Devices tab
  3. Click the ➕ Add Device button
  4. Select Manual Download from the available enrollment methods
  5. Choose the appropriate agent version:
    • Windows (.exe or .msi)
    • macOS (.pkg)
    • Linux (.sh or .deb/.rpm)
  6. Download the agent and transfer it to the target device

???? You can also copy the direct download link and send it via email or chat to a technician on-site.

Installing the Agent

Once the agent is on the device:

  • Double-click the .exe installer
  • Follow the on-screen prompts
  • Run as administrator if prompted
  • Open the .pkg file
  • Follow the guided installation steps
  • Grant necessary permissions during the install

Make the file executable:

chmod +x zecurit-agent.sh

Run the script with sudo/root privileges:

sudo ./zecurit-agent.sh

⚠️ Note: The agent installation must be completed with admin privileges for full functionality.

What Happens After Installation?

  • The Zecurit agent connects to the cloud portal
  • The device appears under Devices in your dashboard
  • Initial inventory sync (hardware, OS, installed software) occurs within a few minutes
  • Any assigned policies (alerts, software rules) begin applying immediately
