# Admin Portal Configuration for CSPs

Cloudbrink's Personal SASE enables enterprises to deliver best-in-class quality of experience and security for their end users in the new mobile-first and cloud-native world. Cloudbrink achieves this through three simple components:

1. The Brink Agent is installed on end user devices, with all major platforms supported.
2. Enterprise access points are automatically created via machine learning in close proximity to the end user, enabling Cloudbrink's revolutionary overlay protocol to overcome the most challenging last-mile network conditions, delivering best-in-class, hi fidelity quality of experience for the end-user no matter the network they are connected to.
3. To provide end-to-end security, a Cloudbrink Connector is deployed in the customer's data center or cloud environment, creating a dark tunnel connection from the end user to their applications.

This document covers deploying the Cloudbrink Connector in an Cloud (IaaS) environment.
