Agent & Extension
How much memory and CPU does DefensX agent consume?
DefensX Agent is a super lightweight agent and does not consume >10MB memory or >%0,1 CPU
Will it slow down my computer?
Our agent does not decrypt traffic on the end-point, which is one of the main reasons for slow-down on computers, so you will not feel any slow-down because of our agent.
What is the query response time for a DNS policy lookup from the cloud?
Every DefensX agent is a relay agent, that’s why a cached DNS lookup is less than 1ms.
How can I exclude some browsers from the extension installation?
If you want to exclude some browsers from the DefensX extension, you can un-select the related option when installing it through the installer GUI.
To set this option using a RMM script, you need to append ADDLOCAL property [1] to the MSI installation command.
In this case, you need to provide all of the component names which you want to install. Possible component names are:
| Component Name | Description |
|---|---|
|
Main DefensX Agent component which includes kernel level DNS protection and embedded DNS over HTTPS server |
