Explanation
According to the VMware Carbon Black Cloud Sensor Installation Guide, the permission level that is required when a user wants to install a sensor on a Windows endpoint is Administrator. The usermust have local administrator privileges on the endpoint to install the sensor. The user can install the sensor by using one of the following methods:
Method 1: Invite Users to Install Sensors on Endpoints: This method allows the user to install the sensor by using an installation code that is sent by email from the Carbon Black Cloud console. The user must run the installation code as an administrator on the endpoint.
Method 2: Install the Sensor on the Endpoint by using the Command Line or Software Distribution Tools: This method allows the user to install the sensor by using the command line, or by using a scripted or automated method such as Group Policy or systems management tools. The user must run the installation command or script as an administrator on the endpoint.
The other permission levels are not sufficient or relevant for installing a sensor on a Windows endpoint.
Everyone is a group that includes all users and groups on the endpoint, but it does not grant administrator privileges. Root is a user that has full access and control over a Linux or Unix system, but it is not applicable to a Windows endpoint. User is a general term that refers to any person who uses a computer or network service, but it does not imply administrator privileges. References:
