Apple enforces end-user personal consent on deploying certificates. You have to make sure certificates are installed correctly.

Installation via Script

Note
 This script should not be used for MDM-based installations. It is intended only for computers that do not have an MDM solution in place. After installation, the end user must manually locate and install the required profiles, similar to the GUI-based installation methods described above.

You can download the installer script, "DefensX-installer-standalone.sh," from the right panel of this document. Before running the script, update the DEFENSX_KEY variable with your deployment key:

DEFENSX_KEY="PUT_YOUR_DEPLOYMENT_KEY_HERE"

Once updated, execute the script with administrative privileges to complete the installation.

Uninstallation

DefensX Agent can be uninstalled by using the uninstall GUI application or with a command.

Uninstall by GUI

You need to run DefensX Uninstaller under the Applications and follow uninstall steps.

It will ask your sudo password and remove the application later.
