= Prevent {agent} uninstallation | ||
|
||
For hosts enrolled in {elastic-defend}, you can prevent unauthorized attempts to uninstall {agent} and {elastic-endpoint} by enabling *Agent tamper protection* on the Agent policy. This offers an additional layer of security by preventing users from bypassing or disabling {elastic-defend}'s endpoint protections. | ||
|
||
When enabled, {agent} and {elastic-endpoint} can only be uninstalled on the host by including an uninstall token in the uninstall CLI command. One unique uninstall token is generated per Agent policy, and you can retrieve uninstall tokens in an Agent policy's settings or in the {fleet} UI. | ||
|

* Agent tamper protection requires a https://www.elastic.co/pricing[Platinum or higher subscription]. | ||
|
||
* Hosts must be enrolled in the {elastic-defend} integration. | ||
|
||
* {agent}s must be version 8.11.0 or later. | ||

== Enable Agent tamper protection | ||
|
||
You can enable Agent tamper protection by configuring the {agent} policy. | ||
|
||
. Go to *{fleet}* -> *Agent policies*, then select the Agent policy you want to configure. | ||
. Select the *Settings* tab on the policy details page. | ||
. In the *Agent tamper protection* section, turn on the *Prevent agent tampering* setting. | ||
+ | ||
This makes the *Get uninstall command* link available, which you can follow to get the uninstall token and CLI command if you need to <<uninstall-agent,uninstall an Agent>> on this policy. | ||
+ | ||
TIP: You can also access an Agent policy's uninstall tokens on the *Uninstall tokens* tab on the *{fleet}* page. Refer to <<fleet-uninstall-tokens>> for more information. | ||
. Select *Save changes*. | ||

If you need the uninstall token to remove {agent} from a endpoint, you can find it in several ways: | ||
|
||

|
||

|
||
** Click the *Show token* icon in the *Token* column to reveal a specific token. | ||
** Click the *View uninstall command* icon in the *Actions* column to open the *Uninstall agent* flyout, containing the full uninstall command with the token. |

|
||
This page is a placeholder for future documentation. | ||
To uninstall {agent} from a host, run the `uninstall` command from the directory where it's running. Refer to the {fleet-guide}/uninstall-elastic-agent.html[{fleet} and {agent} documentation] for more information. | ||
|
||
If <<agent-tamper-protection,Agent tamper protection>> is enabled on the Agent policy for the host, you'll need to include the uninstall token in the command, using the `--uninstall-token` flag. You can <<fleet-uninstall-tokens,find the uninstall token>> on the Agent policy or at *{fleet}* -> *Uninstall tokens*. | ||
|
||

|
||

sudo elastic-agent uninstall --uninstall-token 12345678901234567890123456789012 | ||
