NACVIEW Scout is an application that provides additional security for networks and connected devices. It is installed on end-user devices to scan for security-affecting parameters. The application analyzes received data and creates a security status report for each device. Information collected by the application includes antivirus program data, firewall information, and operating system versions.
To properly go through the application installation process, you need two files dedicated to your operating system. Once you have the necessary files, proceed to step 4. If you did not receive these files from your NACVIEW system administrator, you can download them yourself using the NACVIEW Access Portal. Simply log in and click the Download NACVIEW Scout button.
Before doing so, make sure to read and accept the application's terms of use. Click the Download button for Windows.
Unzip the downloaded folder. Open the folder and locate the NACVIEW-Scout-win folder.
Run the NACVIEWScoutSetup file and follow the installer's instructions.
Once the application is installed, launch it and access the settings.
Load the NACVIEW_Scout.config file by clicking on Load and pointing to the file location (either the downloaded and unzipped folder or the file received from your administrator).
