Proxy support

Starting with version 3.8.0, the Twosense Endpoint Agent supports routing its internet communication through a proxy server.

This feature is configured using Windows Registry keys at:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TWOSENSE.AI\TwosenseAuthenticator

The following registry values control proxy configuration:

  • ProxyUrl (REG_SZ): The hostname or IP address of your proxy server

  • ProxyPort (REG_SZ): The port number for the proxy connection

You can configure these registry keys using PowerShell (shown below), manual registry editing, or Group Policy Object (GPO) for enterprise deployments.
