Vulnerability Assessment allows admins to remotely and silently uninstall vulnerable or unwanted programs from endpoints. This feature works for Windows applications that can be uninstalled via command-line with a Microsoft Software Installer (MSI) file, eliminating the need for manual removal or extra tools.
A reboot may be needed to finish uninstalling an application. Check the Endpoints page in Nebula for devices with the Restart Required status, or enable automatic reboots in your policy to allow devices to restart on their own. For more information, see Endpoint agent policy settings in Nebula.
Uninstall software
- In Nebula, go to Monitor > Software Inventory.
- Check the box next to each app you want to remove.
- Click Actions > Uninstall Software.
- A confirmation window displays the selected applications to remove from endpoints. Any applications that don't support command-line uninstallation using the package's MSI file are listed under the Ineligible for uninstall section.
- In the confirmation window, click Uninstall.
This sends a task to uninstall the software from the endpoint. If the endpoint is offline, it has 72 hours to reconnect before the task is automatically canceled. You can also cancel it manually on the Investigate > Tasks page if the task hasn't started yet.
List of removable apps
Below is a regularly updated list of applications that can be removed from Nebula with Vulnerability Assessment.
TIP - Not all versions of the applications listed are supported. The installed version on each endpoint must support being removed via command line with a MSI.
