300-445 Question 103
Select 3An enterprise organization wants to deploy endpoint agents across 10,000 devices, including Windows, Mac, and Room OS, to enable network assurance monitoring. Which of the following considerations are essential for ensuring successful deployment at scale?
- A
Ensure endpoint agents are compatible with the operating systems and versions used across the organization.
- B
Manually install the endpoint agents on each device to guarantee proper configuration.
- C
Leverage enterprise-grade deployment tools such as SCCM, Jamf, or MDM solutions for automated agent rollout.
- D
Perform a phased deployment to a small subset of devices first to identify and resolve any issues before scaling.
- E
Disable all security software on devices to prevent interference with the endpoint agent functionality.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
To deploy endpoint agents at scale effectively, it is critical to ensure compatibility with operating systems, use automated deployment tools, and adopt a phased approach to minimize disruptions and troubleshoot issues. Manual installation and disabling security software are not feasible or recommended practices for enterprise-scale deployments.
- A. Correct.
Ensuring compatibility is crucial to avoid issues during installation and ensure that the endpoint agents function properly across different devices.
- B. Incorrect.
Manually installing agents on each device is not practical for large-scale deployments and can lead to errors and inefficiencies.
- C. Correct.
Using enterprise-grade deployment tools allows for centralized, automated, and efficient rollout of endpoint agents, reducing manual effort and ensuring consistency.
- D. Correct.
A phased deployment approach helps identify issues in smaller groups before scaling to the entire organization, minimizing disruptions.
- E. Incorrect.
Disabling security software is not a best practice as it exposes devices to vulnerabilities. Instead, configurations should be adjusted to allow coexistence.
