Lumension Endpoint Management and Security Suite
Take Control of Your Endpoints
Overview:
Today's rapidly changing IT network is more distributed and virtual than ever — the majority of data is stored on remote endpoint platforms, such as laptops and mobile PDAs, and accessed through public WiFi networks connected to a company's IT network via the Internet. Mounting budget pressures are forcing companies to look increasingly at virtual and cloud-based computing alternatives. In addition, traditional point-based technologies and solutions have added more complexity and cost to organizations, because IT teams are focusing on the integration of disparate technologies and have to use many different consoles across multiple products.
As IT networks have become increasingly dynamic and distributed with data flowing across a myriad of devices and platforms, companies have effectively lost control of their information.
