Install Comodo Client Security

 

You can deploy Comodo Client Security on to your endpoints, through the Xcitium Enterprise interface.

• Sign up for Xcitium Enterprise athttps://platform.xcitium.com/signup, if you haven't done so.

OR

• Login to your Xcitium Enterprise account at https://enterprise.platform.xcitium.com/login for US and https://enterprise-eu.platform.xcitium.com/login for EU.
  
  

The following tutorial covers user and device enrollment before moving onto CCS installation:

• Step 1 - Enroll Users
  

• Step 2 - Enroll Devices
  
  

Step 1 -Enroll Users

Add a user

• Click 'Assets' > 'User Management' > 'User List'
  

• Click the 'Create User' button

• Type a login username (mandatory), email address (mandatory) and phone number for the user
  

• Customer - The company to which the user belongs. Leave the customer as 'Default Customer'
  

• Role
  

A 'role' determines user permissions within the Dragon Enterprise console itself. Dragon Enterprise ships with four default roles:

 

• Administrators - Can login to Dragon and access all management interfaces. This role can be edited as required.
  

• Technician - Can login to Dragon and access all management interfaces. The technician role has fewer privileges than the administrator role. This role can be edited as required.
  

• Login permission - Can login to Dragon. Users with role cannot access any management interface by default. You can edit the role to assign access to required management interfaces.
  

• Users - In most cases, a user is simply an owner of a managed device. They should not require access to the Dragon Enterprise console. Under default settings, users cannot login to Dragon Enterprise.
  

• Users assigned with roles that provide login to the Dragon console will receive an account activation mail for activating their account. See Configure Role Based Access Control for Users for more details.

• Click 'Submit' to add the user to Dragon Enterprise.

A confirmation is shown:

• Repeat the process to add more users.
  

• New users are added to the 'Users' interface (click 'Assets' > 'User Management' > 'User List')

Tip: You can also bulk import users from a .csv file. See Import Users from a CSV File in the admin guide for more details.

Step 2 - Enroll Devices

The next step is to add user devices so you can manage them with Dragon Enterprise.

• Click 'Assets' > ''User Management' > 'User List'
  

• Select the users whose devices you want to add then click 'Enroll Device'.

This starts step 1 of the device enrollment wizard:

Step 1 - Device Options

• Current device - Enrolls the device you are currently using. You may disregard this option at this stage as we are adding multiple devices with the 'Other device' option.
  

• Other device - Add devices owned by the users you selected previously. Those users should already be listed in the 'Specify User' box:

• You can add additional, existing users by simply typing their email address in the box. Dragon Enterprise will auto-suggest users that have already been created.
  

• Create New User - Click if you want to add a new user to Dragon Enterprise. You cannot add devices unless you have first added the users that own them.
  

• Click 'Next' to proceed to step 2.

Step 2 - Enrollment Options

Enrollment Type

Applies to Windows, Mac and Linux devices.

• Enroll and Protect - Installs both the communication client and the security client.
  

• Just Enroll - Installs only the communication client.

Background. There are two types of client:

• Communication Client - Connects the device to Dragon Enterprise for central management. It is mandatory to install this client.
  

• Security Client - This is the security software.

TLDR

• Click 'Not Specified' if you only want to install the communication client on target devices. The wizard will detect the target operating system and send the appropriate client to the device user.
  

• Click one of the operating system tiles if you also want to install the security client. Make sure the target devices use the operating system you selected.

Option 1 - Enroll + Protect - Single Operating System

• Choose this if you want to deploy both communication and security clients

• Click the Windows OS box. Please make sure all your target devices use this operating system.
  

• The wizard will send enrollment mails which only contain download links for the Windows clients.
  

• You can customize enrollment options as required. You can configure items such as enrollment type, reboot policy, client version, configuration profile and device name.
  

• Note - Please uninstall any other antivirus products from target endpoints before proceeding. Failure to do so could cause conflicts that mean CCS does not function correctly.
  

 

Option 2 - Just Enroll - Multiple Operating Systems

• Choose this if you only want to deploy the communication client. If required, you can install the security client later after enrolling the endpoint.

• Click 'Assets' > 'Devices' > 'Device List'
  

• Select the target devices
  

• Click the 'Install or Update Package' button > Choose 'Install Comodo Client - Security'.

Click 'Next' to skip to step 3 if you are happy with your choices thus far

OR

See the table below for more information about the options on this page.

Setting	Description
Choose platform	Select Window OS version. 64 bit, 32 bit, or hybrid. The hybrid package will auto-detect and install the correct version.
Use default Communication Client version	This client enrolls the endpoint for central management. You can only change the CCC version if enabled in portal settings. If the option is not enabled then the 'Default version' is deployed.
Use default Comodo Client Security version	This client installs security software such as antivirus, firewall and auto-containment. You can only change the CCS version if enabled in portal settings. If the option is not enabled then the 'Default version' is deployed.
Additional options	AV Database - Choose whether to include the latest virus database with the installation package. This increases the size of the package. If disabled, the client will download the latest database anyway when you run the first virus scan.
Configuration Profile	A configuration profile is a collection of settings which specify a device's network access rights, security settings, antivirus scan schedule, and more. The default is 'Windows - Security Level 1' profile. Choose a different profile if required. The default profile is recommended for most users and can always be changed later if required. If you want to change it, type the first few characters of a profile name and choose from the suggestions that appear. You can view the settings in a profile at 'Configuration Templates' > 'Profiles'.
Set Reboot Options	Endpoints need to be restarted to complete CCS installation. You have the following restart options: Force the reboot in... - Restart the endpoint a certain length of time after installation. Select the delay period from the drop-down. A warning message is shown to the user prior to the restart. Suppress reboot - Endpoint is not auto-restarted. The installation is finalized when the user next restarts the endpoint. Warn about reboot and let users postpone it - Shows a message to the user which tells them that the endpoint needs to be restarted. The user can choose when the restart happens. Optional. Type a custom message in the 'Reboot Message' field.
Device Name Options	Do Not Change - The device's existing name is used to identify the device in Dragon Enterprise. Change - Enter a new device name. Note - You can restore the original name from the device list screen if required.

• Click 'Next' to proceed to step 3.
  

Step 3 - Installation Summary

Review your choices so far.

• Click 'Back' or 'Change Configuration' (top-right) to revise your choices.

• Click 'Next' to proceed to step 4

Step 4 - Installation Instructions

The final step is to send out the enrollment emails to the device owners:

• Send - Click this to send enrollment mails to users with the settings you choose in steps 1 - 3.

• Enroll Another Device - Takes you back to step 1
  

• Go to Bulk Installation Package - Takes you to bulk installation package screen to configure and enroll users in bulk. See 'Bulk Enrollment of Devices' in the admin guide.
  

• Click 'Finish' to close the window.

An example mail is shown below:

The user experience is as follows:

• User opens the email on the Windows endpoint you want to enroll.
  

• Click the enrollment link in the email to open the device enrollment page
  

• Click the 'Download Windows Installer' button:

• The Dragon client setup file gets downloaded.
  

• Run the setup file to install the client on the endpoint.
  

• The device is automatically added to Dragon Enterprise once installation is complete. The Dragon Enterprise communication client icon appears at the bottom-right of the endpoint screen.
  

• If the client is not automatically enrolled after installation, you can manually enroll the device at a later time. This might happen if, for example, there are connectivity issues.
  

• You will need to enter the host, port and token ID to manually enroll. You can find these items at the end of the device enrollment page.
  

• Protection is effective immediately after the computer restarts.

A Dragon Enterprise security profile is applied to the device.

• If the user is already associated with a configuration profile in Dragon Enterprise, then those profiles will be applied to the device. See 'Assign Configuration Profile(s) to User Devices' and 'Assign Configuration Profiles to a User Group' in the admin guide for more details.
  

• If no profiles are defined for the user then the default Windows profile(s) will be applied to the device. See Manage Default Profiles in the admin guide for more details.

The device can now be remotely managed from the Dragon Enterprise console.
