What This Solves
Enable secure software deployment
Enable teams to define and enforce policies that dictate exactly which applications are permitted to run on student and staff devices. This prevents the execution of potentially harmful or unauthorized software, maintaining a secure computing environment.
networked computer labs, managed student devices, faculty workstations, administrative systems
Automate threat prevention
Automate the detection and blocking of known and unknown malware threats before they can impact endpoints. This reduces the burden on IT staff for manual threat hunting and incident response.
