Benefits

The Insight Agent provides several overall and product specific benefits.

One-time installation

The Insight Agent only needs to be installed once per asset and will update automatically in the background. All Insight products utilize the same agent to perform their tasks.

Easy mass deployment

The Insight Agent certificate included with your download package is unique to your organization. You can use this single package to mass deploy the agent with patch management, group policy, or similar software.

Continuous monitoring on the front lines

According to a study by industry analysts at International Data Corporation (IDC), 70% of successful breaches start on the endpoint. Deploy the Insight Agent across your environment to mitigate against this significant attack surface.
