Deep Security 11 has reached end of support. Use the version selector (above) to see more recent versions of the Help Center.

System requirements

Each part of a Deep Security deployment has its own system requirements.

Deep Security Manager requirements
Deep Security Agent 11.0 requirements
Deep Security Notifier requirements

Requirements vary by version. For older versions of Deep Security Manager, agents, or relays, see their documentation.

If you plan to operate Deep Security in FIPS mode, see FIPS 140-2 support for additional requirements.

Deep Security Manager requirements

For a list of agents versions that are compatible with this version of Deep Security Manager, see Deep Security Agent platforms .

System component	Requirements
Minimum memory (RAM)	Minimum RAM requirements depend on the number of agents that are being managed. See Deep Security Manager sizing. On Linux, reserved system memory is separate from process memory. Therefore, although the installer's estimate might be similar, it will detect less RAM than the computer actually has. To verify the computer's actual total RAM, log in with a superuser account and enter: `grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo`
Minimum disk space	1.5 GB (200 GB recommended)
Operating system	Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 (64-bit) Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (64-bit) Windows Server 2016 (64-bit) Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2 (64-bit) Windows Server 2008 or 2008 R2 (64-bit) Deep Security Manager for AWS Marketplace requires AWS Linux (64-bit). Windows operating systems running in a Server Core configuration are not currently supported.
Database	PostgreSQL 9.6.x (only Core or Amazon RDS distributions) Microsoft SQL Server 2016 Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 Microsoft SQL RDS or Oracle RDS Azure SQL Database (SaaS) (multi-tenancy is not supported) Oracle 11g, 12c, 18c, all supported when deployed as software or when used with Amazon RDS Disk space required varies by the size of the deployment, data retention, and frequency of logging. See Sizing. Minimum free disk space = (2 x database size) + transaction log For example, if your database plus transaction log is 40 GB, you must have 80 GB (40 x 2) of free disk space for database schema upgrades. To free disk space, delete any unnecessary event log data and transaction logs. Deep Security Manager support for PostgreSQL includes any minor versions of compatible PostgreSQL releases. Microsoft SQL Server Express is only supported in very limited deployments. See Microsoft SQL Server Express considerations. Microsoft SQL Server service packs for these versions are also supported. Microsoft SQL Server is only supported when database containment is set to NONE. For details, see this Microsoft webpage on contained databases. Oracle Database Express (XE) is not supported. Oracle container database (CDB) configuration is not supported with Deep Security Manager multi-tenancy. Apache Derby, which provided an embedded database for proof-of-concept and testing in previous versions of Deep Security, is not supported anymore.
Web browser	Cookies must be enabled. Firefox 52.0 or higher Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 or higher, or Edge Google Chrome 57 or higher Apple Safari 9 or higher (for Mac)
Monitor	1024 x 768 resolution at 256 colors or higher
Supported Deep Security Agent, Relay, or Virtual Appliance versions	Deep Security Agent, Relay, or Virtual Appliance 11.0 Deep Security Agent, Relay, or Virtual Appliance 10.3 Deep Security Agent, Relay, or Virtual Appliance 10.2 Deep Security Agent, Relay, or Virtual Appliance 10.1 Deep Security Agent, Relay, or Virtual Appliance 10.0 Deep Security Agent, or Relay 9.6 (there is no 9.6 version of the Virtual Appliance) Relays must be 64-bit. 32-bit relays are not supported. Notes: Relays must be 64-bit. 32-bit relays are not supported. Most 9.6 Agents and 9.6 Relays have now reached their end-of-life date, and should be upgraded. For a limited number of platforms, support for 9.6 has been extended. For details, see this Help Center page: https://help.deepsecurity.trendmicro.com/dates-lts.html For some platforms, a 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, or 11.0 Agent does not exist. In those cases, the 11.0 Manager supports older versions. For a list of older agent versions that are still supported, see this Help Center page: https://help.deepsecurity.trendmicro.com/dates-lts.html When using an older agent, you must go to Administration > System Settings > Update and select Allow supported 8.0 and 9.0 Agents to be updated. Otherwise Deep Security will conserve disk space by not downloading older update formats.

Deep Security Agent 11.0 requirements

System component	Requirements
Minimum memory (RAM) Total system memory	Requirements vary by OS version and the features that you enable. For details, see Deep Security Agent and Relay sizing.
Minimum disk space	See Deep Security Agent and Relay sizing.
Operating system	For compatible Docker and OS platforms, see Deep Security Agent platforms . Supported Deep Security features vary by platform. On supported versions of Microsoft Windows, you must have at least Powershell version 4.0 to run the agent deployment script.

The agent installer permits installation on any supported operating system. RAM and disk space requirements are not checked.

Deep Security Notifier requirements

If installed, Deep Security Notifier appears in the Windows system tray. If anti-malware is licensed and enabled, it indicates the statuses of Deep Security Agent. Supported platforms include:

Windows Server 2016 (64-bit)
Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2 (64-bit)
Windows Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)
Windows Server 2008 (32-bit and 64-bit)
