Installing the Shield Guard Agent

Similar to MarketPlace apps, you can install the Shield Guard Agent on your devices using the MarketPlace website or at the MFP panel using the App Manager. When you install the agent on an MFP, the Shield Guard Portal recognizes the MFP, links it to the user’s MarketPlace account, and adds it to the Shield Guard group. On the portal, once you assign a security policy to the MFP, you can begin to remotely monitor the security status of the MFP. No other configuration is necessary for the portal.

Configuring the Agent

The agent has no user interface or Settings page, and thus requires no configuration. Once the Shield Guard agent is installed on an MFP, the Shield Guard Agent icon appears on the device’s App menu, as shown in the image below.

The Shield Guard Agent appears as a screensaver at the MFP, running serially along with any other screensavers active on the MFP. See the following illustration:
