To use the Application, a VaultSpeed Agent must be deployed. The agent is an application that securely facilitates communication between your Databases/Servers and the VaultSpeed Cloud. 

You can find the installation instructions for the VaultSpeed Agent here:[ Agent Installation and Configuration](https://docs.vaultspeed.com/space/VPD/4076896954/Agent+Installation+and+Configuration). 

The agent menu is located near the bottom of the main menu.
