Install Guide
Push ShieldMind via your MDM.
MDM-pushed apps bypass macOS Gatekeeper and Windows SmartScreen warnings — your users never see a "block" dialog. Recipes for the three MDMs that cover ~90% of mid-market fleets.

Jamf Pro (macOS)
- Download the ShieldMind agent .pkg from your dashboard →
Installtab → "Download for MDM push". - In Jamf Pro, go to Computer Management → Packages, click New, upload the .pkg, set Category to "Security".
- Create a Policy under Computers → Policies: trigger = "Recurring Check-in" (or "Enrollment Complete" for new devices), scope = your target Computer Group, payload = the package you uploaded. Save and let it run on next check-in.
The .pkg ships with the org enroll token baked into a configuration profile. No per-device manual setup needed. Activation visible in your dashboard's Endpoints page within 5 minutes of install.
Microsoft Intune (Windows + macOS)
- Download the ShieldMind agent installer from your dashboard: .msi for Windows, .pkg for macOS.
- In Intune, go to Apps → All apps → Add → Line-of-business app. Upload the .msi (Windows) or .pkg (macOS). For .pkg you'll also supply the bundle identifier
com.shieldmind.agent. - Under Assignments, assign to your target group as "Required". Set install context: System (Windows) / Device (macOS).
- For macOS: also create a Configuration Profile granting Full Disk Access to
com.shieldmind.agentunder Devices → macOS → Configuration profiles → Privacy Preference Policy Control. Same profile can grant Endpoint Security entitlements once we ship signed (until then the agent runs in observe-only mode for ESF-gated detections).
Kandji (macOS)
- Download the ShieldMind .pkg from your dashboard → Install.
- In Kandji, go to Library → Add Library Item → Custom Apps. Upload the .pkg, set Audit & Enforce frequency to "Continuously", install enforcement to "Install on-demand".
- Assign to a Blueprint covering your target Mac fleet. Devices on that Blueprint will install on next check-in (within 15 min).
Other MDMs
We've documented the three above because they cover most mid-market fleets, but the same .pkg / .msi works with: Mosyle, Workspace ONE, Hexnode, JumpCloud, Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager (MECM). Generic recipe: upload the installer, push to the target device group, no per-device interaction needed.

No MDM? Direct install (small teams)
If you have fewer than 25 devices and no MDM, your users can install the agent directly:
- Download the installer from your dashboard's Install page.
- macOS: right-click the .pkg → "Open" → "Open anyway" in the dialog. (Unsigned interim build; switching to fully-signed soon.)
- Windows: run the .msi → "More info" → "Run anyway" on the SmartScreen prompt.
We're in the Apple Developer + Microsoft Hardware Dev Center review queues. Once those clear (typically 3–6 weeks), direct installs will be one-click with no warnings.
