Before you install the Change Guardian server, verify hardware and software requirements and determine the resources you need for your Change Guardian implementation.
For information about the recommended hardware, supported operating systems, appliance platforms, and browsers, see the Technical Information page.
A Change Guardian implementation can vary based on the needs of your IT environment, so you should contact Consulting Services or any of the Sentinel partners prior to finalizing the Sentinel architecture for your environment.
Change Guardian offers enhanced protection against security threats and compliance with United States federal government standards by supporting Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS). For Change Guardian to run in FIPS mode, you must configure it after you install the Change Guardian server. For more information, see Configure Change Guardian to Run in FIPS Mode.
NOTE:FIPS mode is supported only for Change Guardian. Change Guardian is not supported if the operating system is in FIPS mode.
