# EVE Agent Requirements

Before installing the EVE software on the designated Endpoint it is necessary to consider the following:

* Endpoint (physical or VM) with Golden Image.
* Exclusion of EVE files in third-party Endpoint solutions.
* Third-party communications configuration in the EVE Platform.
* Privileges to perform installation of EVE software in virtual machine.
* Communication from the Endpoint to the Platform
* Frameworks

Ensuring that these points are met before downloading and installing the EVE software allows the installation to proceed successfully.
