Navigate to the sidebar menu: [Deployments](docId\:h62CnWLZ1OyHnHPKL5AS9) > [End-Points](docId\:xkBYB1hMatXzpTpHj00rU) and ensure you are on the **Installation** tab.

## Overview

The Installation module is designed to provide all the necessary tools to **generate** the security **key**, select the initial protection profile, and download the specific **client agent** for the operating system of the device you need to protect.

:::hint{type="info"}
**How it works: **You configure the basic settings like the protection profile and **generate** a **security key**. Then, you **download** the installer for your target device or use the **QR code** to set up mobile endpoints. The system uses the **key** during **installation** to link the device to your security rules.
:::

## Interface Overview

The interface is divided into two main areas: the client **configuration section** and the software **download area**.

### Configure the Client

Use this section to set up the deployment parameters for your new endpoints before downloading the software.

| **Protection Policy**             | Use the drop-down menu located in the blue box on the right to select the default **security ruleset** that will be applied to the **newly** installed **agents**.                                                                       |
| **Security Key**                  | A unique alphanumeric **code** required during the Agent **installation **process. Click the **copy** icon on the right to save it to your **clipboard**.                                                                      |
| **Agent guided installation URL** | The web address to access the **installation page** directly from the target device. You can copy the **link** using the dedicated icon or scan the **generated QR** code to open the setup page **faster** from your mobile **device**. |

## Download the software

Select the appropriate **installer** for your target device. Click the blue download button next to the required operating system to get the **client application**.

## Configuration & Logic

### Deploying the Client

Since the deployment requires **linking** the device to your **specific account**, the Security Key is essential. Generating the key and selecting the **correct Protection** Profile ensures that once the software is **downloaded** and installed, the endpoint will immediately begin **filtering** traffic according to your predefined **rules** without requiring further manual network configuration.
