Virtual Machines

Privilege Secure can be installed using VMs as opposed to appliances. Below are the requirements for Virtual Machines (VMs).

VMware​

  • CPU – 8 Cores
  • RAM – 32 GB (up to 10,000 endpoints), 64GB (10,000 endpoints+)
  • Disk – 1 TB
  • Network Dedicated NIC – Adapter type Intel E1000 based (E1000E, E1000, Intel PRO/1000*)

NOTE: 16GB of RAM can be used for smaller environment that have under 1,000 endpoints.

This should be setup as a Ubuntu 20.04 LTS Virtual Machine, with a majority of the storage allocated to the root "/" partition. The Customer Success Team will provide a Ubuntu ISO that can be downloaded and installed prior to implementation of Privilege Secure.

Cloud:  AWS, GCP, Azure​

AWS is used as an example. For GCP and Azure, use equatable instances (T-shirt Sizes).

m5.2xlarge (up to 10,000 endpoints)

  • CPU – 8 Cores
  • RAM – 32GB
  • Disk – 1 TB
  • Network – 1GB
  • EBS Bandwidth – 4,750 Mbps

m5.4xlarge 16 64 (over 10,000 endpoints)

  • CPU – 16 Cores
  • RAM – 64GB
  • Disk – 1 TB
  • Network – 1GB
  • EBS Bandwidth – 4,750 Mbps

This should be setup with an Ubuntu 20.04 LTS server, with a majority of the storage allocated to the root "/" partition. The Customer Success Team will provide assistance with the implementation of Privilege Secure.

SMALL Environment Storage Options​

NOTE: Bandwidth: We roughly estimate 0.3 to 0.5 Mbps per endpoint. As an example for 30,000 endpoints expect to use 50-100GB per month. This is a general guideline and not a hard set value. Amounts may vary depending on use and other factors.
