Local installation on the device
ESET Endpoint Security for Android provides administrators with an option to setup and manage Endpoint locally if they choose not to use ESET PROTECT. All application settings are protected by Admin password so the application is under full administration control at all times.
If the administrator in a small company decides not to use ESET PROTECT but he still wants to protect corporate devices and apply basic security policies, he has two options on how to manage the devices locally:
1.Physical access to each company device and a manual configuration of the settings.
2.Administrator can prepare desired configuration on his Android device (with ESET Endpoint Security for Android installed) and export these settings to a file – see the Import/Export settings section of this guide for more info). Administrator can share the exported file with the end-users (for example via email) – they can import the file to any device running ESET Endpoint Security for Android. When the user opens and accepts the received settings file, it will automatically import all the settings and activate the application (provided the license information was included). All the settings will be protected by Admin password.
Installing ESET Endpoint Security for Android in Android Work Profile, Android Personal Profile or other sandboxes It is not recommended to install the ESET Endpoint Security for Android app in Android Work Profile, Personal Profile or other sandboxes/secure folders. These folders are completely isolated from the rest of the device, and therefore only the contents of the secure folder will be protected, resulting in very limited functionality of ESET Endpoint Security for Android. If you do add ESET Endpoint Security for Android to one of the mentioned sandboxes, it will require a separate activation. |
