ZENworks® includes ZENworks Endpoint Security Management that is completely integrated into the centralized, web-based ZENworks console. This new version includes:
- A single management agent that provides integrated configuration and security management on Windows devices. This integrated agent communicates to and from the ZENworks server over standard HTTP(s) protocols and provides full location awareness capabilities.
- A single management console and policy management framework for configuration management and security management. This includes support for feature-specific policies that allow you to define granular security settings for individual devices, combine security and configuration policies into unified policy groups, and assign policies based on any combination of users, devices, and locations.
- A new endpoint security reporting service that improves your ability to run and create reports that provide deeper insights into endpoint security policy enforcement.
