The HelixConnect Client connects your Trellix Network Security, Email Security — Server, and Endpoint Security (HX) appliances directly to the Helix Enterprise cloud using a secure VPN connection. This allows Helix Enterprise to collect alert artifacts from the appliances.
It also allows you to do the following from the Helix Enterprise Web UI:
Configure policy and other Network Security and Email Security — Server settings in Appliance Settings pages.
Update Network Security and Email Security — Server appliances to the latest system image, guest images, and security content.
Download artifacts and modify inline policy exceptions in Network Security alert details pages.
Download artifacts and emails, and manage quarantined emails in Email Security — Server alert details pages.
Manage queued emails in Email Security — Server appliance details pages.
Contain or uncontain an Endpoint Security (HX) host, acquire artifacts (file or triage package), and download artifacts from its host details page.
Manage the propagation of intelligence feeds to eligible connected Network Security and Email Security — Server appliances.
Important
The HelixConnect Client integrates Trellix appliances with Helix Enterprise. It is not related to the HelixConnect page in the Helix Enterprise Web UI, which allows you to integrate cloud products with Helix Enterprise.
To establish connectivity with the HelixConnect Client and enable the functionality it offers, see Enabling the HelixConnect Client.
Note
See the Helix Enterprise Product Guide for details about the Helix Enterprise Web UI functionality enabled by the HelixConnect Client.
