New Improvements and Changes
New Features For Unified Endpoint Management
Vulnerability Landing Page for Patch Management
The new landing page for patch data is available when selecting "Endpoint Protection -> Patch Management" in UEM/SUEM. The dashboards provides an overview on the current status of all computers which are running Patch Management. Only active Windows computers with patch data reported within 7 days are relevant. All others are displayed as “older” or “unknown”.
Patch Scan and Fix runs
Shows the installation result of the patch management scan and fix package within the past 12 weeks. Only the latest result per device is counted.
Patch state based on missing patches
Shows which computers reported missing security and non-security patches based on the Patch Management settings.
Patch Definition Date
Shows the age of the patch definition (catalog) used on the reported patch runs.
New Software Installation Cleanup Engine
A new background engine cleans-up the listed software applications reported by the Empirum Connector or Empirum Inventory Data Provider. Software which is not reported by Inventory anymore will be removed from the computers list of installed applications.
The engine runs once every night and checks if the customer has Matrix42 License Management running. If so, the engine will skip all further activities as the License Management will take care of handling applications which are not reported anymore. This is detected by checking if the LCMLicenseDemandClassBase is empty which is used by the “Lic - Data Batch Processing”.
New Workflow Activities to automate Assignments (Preview)
Workflow activities provide the ability to automate software deployment processes by using workflows. The workflows can be initiated by compliance rules, actions or part of change management processes. The online help describes the activities and also provide sample use cases. The category in the activity browser is "SUEM Automation" with sub categories "Assignment", "Device" and "UEM Object".
The current release is a preview release to get feedback and allow customers and partners to get familiar with the new functionality. We plan to release an update version soon which sets the status to production ready. Until than this is for testing purposes only as we might change the activities and is contained parameters.
The initially available activities are:
