Purpose

Compiling creates an executable that installs the agent in silent mode. No output is visible on the device.

Operating systems

OS X, Windows

Parameters
Name Description
Require administrative privileges

Administrator privileges are required during agent installation.

Behavior differs according to operating system:

  • OS X: if selected, the agent will request the root password, corrupting the authentication dialogue. If not selected, some modules will not work.
  • Windows: if selected, administrator privileges will be required to proceed with agent installation. The option must be selected to target Windows Vista devices, when the user is a member of the Administrator group. In all other cases, leave the option blank.
Include 64bit support (100 KiB) (Windows only) The executable supports 64bit machines (size will increase by 100 KiB).
Include audio codec (200 KiB)

(Windows only) The executable includes the audio codec (size will increase by 200 KiB).

NOTE: even if this option is not selected, the agent will download the audio codec required for the type of evidence to be acquired at first synchronization.

Use the certificate to sign the dropper

Sign the executable using the digital certificate. The digital signature can significantly increase the level of invisibility to anti-viruses.

IMPORTANT: follow the procedure to receive a certificate to use this function. See "Obtaining a Code Signing certificate".

Service call: for further information on how to obtain a digital certificate, contact HackingTeam support service.

NOTE: 1 KiB is 1024 byte.
