Deployment - Jamf Protect Evaluation Guide

You can deploy Jamf Protect to computers in your organization using one of the following methods:

• (Jamf Pro) Directly from Jamf Pro —

  If you use Jamf Pro, you can deploy the latest Jamf Protect PKG and scope plans directly from Jamf Pro. Jamf recommends this method for Jamf Pro users.

  For more information about this integration, see Automatically Deploy Jamf Protect Using Jamf Pro in the Jamf Trusted Access Solution Guide for Business.

  Note:

  This integration is not available in Jamf Pro evaluation instances. If you are evaluating Jamf Pro concurrently with Jamf Protect, you must manually upload the package and plans (configuration profiles) to Jamf Pro.

• (Other MDM solutions) Manually download and upload —

  If you use another MDM solution, you can download the latest Jamf Protect PKG and plans from your Jamf Protect tenant and upload them to your MDM solution for deployment. The PKG or unique download URL are available in your Jamf Protect macOS Security portal.

Keep the following in mind when deploying Jamf Protect:

• The plan configuration profile and Jamf Protect agent should be deployed simultaneously with your MDM solution. If the Jamf Protect agent is deployed without a plan configuration profile, the agent will not work as intended.
