This topic gives instructions for installing Desktop Protector.
You can install RealSecure Desktop Protector locally at your agent computer or remotely
from RealSecure ICEcap Manager. In most cases, you should distribute Desktop Protector
to network systems from ICEcap Manager. This allows centralized control of
configuration. However, in some cases it may be quicker to install an agent manually.
For information about installing remotely with RealSecure ICEcap Manager, see the
RealSecure ICEcap Manager User Guide.
When Desktop Protector is installed directly on an agent computer, you must manually
configure the ICEcap settings. When Desktop Protector reports to ICEcap Manager, any
configuration and protection settings attributed to the agent's account and group are
distributed to the agent.
Manual installations of RealSecure Desktop Protector always include the local user

interface, known as "silent" agents. For information about installing silent agents, see the
RealSecure ICEcap Manager User Guide.
