Issue:
F-Secure - Linux Security 64 failed to be installed successfully and the installation process is stuck at "Installing BaseGuard" stage
Resolution:
During the installation of F-Secure Linux Security 64, it will connect to the F-Secure Policy Manager Server and check for the latest database updates. If F-Secure Policy Manager Server does not have the latest database updates and the internet connection is blocked for such update, then the installation of F-Secure Linux Security 64 will fail. Therefore, it is important to enable the internet connection for Policy Manager Server so that the database update could be done successfully which contributes to the successful installation of F-Secure Linux Security 64.
Other than that, make sure that the connection between F-Secure Linux Security 64 and F-Secure Policy Manager Server could be established successfully.
