On a typical day, the task of managing all the endpoint devices on your network is a challenging one. Given both the volume and variety of systems — from servers and networking devices to laptops, smartphones and other end-user devices — how can you keep on top of such essential tasks as inventory tracking, provisioning, configuration management, and cyber hygiene? This problem is compounded when an agency is juggling multiple device management solutions, each geared toward a particular platform.
And that’s on a typical day. Those challenges are magnified during unusual circumstances — when a natural disaster or another emergency disrupts operations. In that environment, strong endpoint device management is more challenging and more important than ever, said Mike Arrowsmith, Chief Trust Officer at NinjaOne.
“How those particular devices can be backed up, how they can be recovered in time of crisis, is always first and foremost on everybody’s minds,” he said. In this video interview, Arrowsmith discusses how agencies can ensure that all devices are fully operational and secure, no matter what the circumstances.
Topics addressed include:
- Delivering consistent management and functionality across the full spectrum of devices
- Providing enterprise-class security without compromising the end-user experience
- Preparing for continued operations in the event of a natural disaster or similar disruptions
