Introduction
An overview of Arc.
Detection information
The information that Arc detects. The table shows two types of Category: network and asset. When the Category is listed as network, it means that the detection is based on information that has been extracted from the network. When the Category is listed as asset, it means that the detection is based on information that has been extracted from the asset.

  - Introduction
    An overview of Arc.
    - Arc overview
      Arc™ is a host-based sensor that detects and defends against malicious or compromised endpoints, and insider attacks. You can use Arc sensors to aggregate data for analysis and reports, either on-premises, or in the Vantage cloud.
    - Architecture
      It is important to understand the different architecture possibilities that are available with Arc.
    - Arc in Vantage
      The Sensors page shows all the Arc sensors in the network. It also lets you connect an Arc sensor.
    - Arc in Guardian
      The Arc button in the Guardian Web UI lets you access the different pages for Arc.
    - Arc in CMC
      The Arc button in the Central Management Console (CMC) Web UI lets you access the different pages for Arc.
    - Viewing data from Arc
      The data Arc acquires can be viewed in different places, and in different formats.
    - Security measures
      A description of the security measures that Arc uses.
    - Detection information
      The information that Arc detects. The table shows two types of Category: network and asset. When the Category is listed as network, it means that the detection is based on information that has been extracted from the network. When the Category is listed as asset, it means that the detection is based on information that has been extracted from the asset.
  - Requirements
    The machine and network requirements necessary to use Arc.
  - Preparation
    Information on how to import Arc packages, and install a license.
  - Configuration
    Details on how to configure Arc.
  - Deployment
    Information on how to deploy Arc. This includes details for manual and automatic deployments, and deployment through a mobile device management (MDM) system.
  - Execution
    Information on the different modes that you can use with Arc.
  - Troubleshooting
    Troubleshooting procedures to help you solve problems that might occur when you use Arc.
- Arc Embedded
  Arc Embedded is a cybersecurity sensor built into PLCs to provide real-time visibility and deep threat detection within industrial control systems.

Detection information

The information that Arc detects. The table shows two types of Category: network and asset. When the Category is listed as network, it means that the detection is based on information that has been extracted from the network. When the Category is listed as asset, it means that the detection is based on information that has been extracted from the asset.
