Deployment and Collection
Best practice: When installing the Trusted Device agent with third-party utilities, administrators should target specific
collections of devices to avoid a high volume of noise from unsupported platforms.
There are many options to target supported platforms with deployment utilities. For examples of generating collections using the
Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager and options to target specific devices, see https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/
configmgr/core/clients/manage/collections/create-collections.
Deployments are performed through Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager based on generated collections. For more
information about generating deployment tasks and scheduling across larger environments, see https://docs.microsoft.com/
en-us/mem/configmgr/apps/deploy-use/deploy-applications.
Other third-party utilities use similar mechanisms. For information about PDQ Deploy options for creating collections, see
