Hi all,Good day. I have a question regarding the EPM agent for macOS. For this test case, I have two types of endpoints, one Windows and one macOS.I have learned about the agent installation for the Windows endpoint. This one is straightforward for my case since I only have one Windows endpoint for product evaluation. All I need to do is download the package manager and run the command to install it.But, I am still unsure about macOS. Please note that Im not familiar with macOS and this is my first time working with it for a product evaluation. My question is, for macOS, can I use the same method for the agent installation? I mean using a package manager similar to the Windows endpoint since I only have a single macOS machine.Appreciate it if someone could provide the proper guideline and advise on this.Thanks again.

Hi Team,How to block dmg file installation in EPM-M we are unable to block installation for dmg file as well as package installer. The blocking rule is ineffective for application installations, whereas the actions related to allowing or requesting installations are functioning as intended.

Hello,We have a on-demand rule for Command prompt for a set of users . This rule allows running of child processes with Basic Admin token for Windows Command Prompt - Run-As-Admin action.For same set of users , when they try to install another application using Run-As-Admin option , based on quick-start rules it gets Admin token which gets applied to child processes as well. But at one point in installation Command Prompt is launched by the installer , this results in additional prompt for the user . Logs show that it is hitting the Command Prompt on-demand rule. I think as the application is triggering the Command Prompt and it has application name as parent process, it should ideally get the admin token and not hit the CMD on-demand rule ?

We have a requirement in our environment wherein we want to restrict users from modifying certain registry keys/ hives. We want to know:whether we can enforce this using EPM policies or do we need to use group policies for this?Will EPM Policy be able to block users from modifying registry values within their respective endpoints? Can Avecto Defendpoint Service identify such events related to registry modifications i.e. will we see event logs (in Event Viewer and BT EPM cloud console) related to every unique registry key/ hive?

Hi Everyone, I have the following use case:How can i target the git command in the terminal?The Git binary was installed by the user via Homebrew.I’ve tried matching File / Folder Name criteria with git, and also using the absolute path /usr/local/Cellar/git/2.51.1/bin/git in the Application Groups, but it still didn’t work.I tried matching it with parent process and even using the hash (SHA-256).I tested sample commands like ls -la, as shown in the documentation website, and the ls -la were successfully captured.The git command filtering is only work when i use a sudo command application type. i.e. if i type sudo git pull...But the case i want is no

Hi,Has anyone seen issues with Win11 AutoPilot laptops and PatchMyPC where EPM is now prompting users trying to install anything in Company Portal.I found thisPreviously: EPM probably trusted these scripts through a Publisher rule or Parent process allow rule.Now: After a recent Patch My PC update (around Oct 2025), the background script is signed or launched differently, possibly under the System Functions policy group, and no longer matches the older rule conditions.Anyone any ideas?

I have a hybrid environment where my on-prem AD group accounts are created and then later on syncd to Entra ID. When I add one of the syncd groups, the filter does not get applied at all. Does anybody know how EPM checks for which group a user belongs to? I tried creating a separate Entra ID cloud group and added myself as a member, got the sync completed via the API, then added an account filter using this group, still does not get applied. What am I missing?
