• Linux Server: Debian 12, Debian 11, Debian 10, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Rocky Linux 9, Rocky Linux 8, Rocky Linux 7, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, CentOS 8, CentOS 7, Amazon Linux 2 64-bit. Linux Kernel version 3.10 is the minimum kernel version.
  • Amazon Linux, Centos, and Red Hat Linux require Dynamic Kernel Management System (DKMS) to be installed. If Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) and Secure Boot is enabled, kernel modules may require cryptographic signatures. For more information, see Add Linux endpoints and Kernel module not running in EDR.

Note: For optimal performance, we recommend reserving 1.1Mbps of network bandwidth for every 100 endpoints using Suspicious Activity Monitoring.
