# Install Threat Prevention module using the package management tools

Install the software using the <dfn>Yellowdog Updater Modified (YUM)</dfn>, <dfn>Advanced Packaging Tool (APT)</dfn>, and <dfn>Zypper</dfn> package management tool.

 
 When you install 
 Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) for Linux Threat Prevention from the 
 <dfn>YUM</dfn>, 
 <dfn>APT</dfn>, and 
 <dfn>Zypper</dfn> repositories, the On-Access Scan is disabled by default. To enable On-Access Scan after installation, use the command-line or the 
 <kbd>env</kbd> variables. 
 

For information about enabling the On-Access Scan using the command line, see <cite>Enable or Disable On-Access Scanning</cite> or the <dfn>manpage</dfn> help.

 

For installation using command line, use these variables:

 

- <kbd>MFE_DISABLE_CONTENT_UPDATE</kbd>
- <kbd>MFE_DISABLE_GTI</kbd>
- <kbd>MFE_DISABLE_OAS</kbd>
- <kbd>MFE_DISABLE_AP</kbd>

 

To use these options, run the command as:

 

<kbd>MFE_DISABLE_OAS=yes yum install McAfeeTP</kbd>
