Manual Install

You can install the Forcepoint F1E Endpoint agent on macOS.

The install process is broken into two steps – an initial agent install followed by trusting the SSL identity for your endpoint.
Note: Forcepoint recommends to deploy the agent using distributions services such as Jamf for production roll outs.

Following are the requirements for agent installation:

  • Administrator credentials on the endpoint machine.
  • For the DLP installations, ensure the following:
    • If you intend to monitor email on the endpoint and if your email client is Microsoft Outlook then you must first deploy the Forcepoint Outlook Add-in.
    • You must create the SSL Identity, and generate the following:
      • key.pem: Private key for the SSL identity.
      • server.pem: Self-signed certificate for the SSL identity.
