Headless Linux Installation Process

Installation of Linux Qualys Agent on Headless Servers

First, you'll need to connect to your headless server via SSH or using the console provided by the vendor (e.g. Microsoft Azure Virtual Machine Console).

Once connected, please make sure you are running as a root account.

You then need to download the required Qualys Agent installer.

DEBIAN

curl https://cybertecsecuritytools.com/qualys/linux/x64_deb/QualysCloudAgent.deb --output QualysCloudAgent.deb

Confirm you have the file downloaded successfully with the "ls" command.

You can then proceed to run the installation commands provided by us for your specific installer, these are custom for you, so please copy them from the email we sent you, or request them again, as the command below, as an example, will not work for you.

Your agent is now installed and your device should be checking in.
