Overview

Overview

A Secure Agent is a lightweight program that runs all tasks and enables secure communication across the firewall between your organization and
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
. Each Secure Agent that you install is shared by the entire organization.
You can install a Secure Agent on any machine that has access to the data that you want to use with
Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services
. The Secure Agent must be up and running to run tasks and upload operational metadata to the cloud. So, install the Secure Agent on a machine that is always running, such as a production server.
For more information about Secure Agents, see "Runtime environments" in the Administrator help.
To set up a Secure Agent on Windows, complete the following steps:
  1. Download and install the Secure Agent.
  2. Configure a login for the Windows Secure Agent service.
