Data Sheet: Compliance and Security Management
Altiris® SecurityExpressions™
Detect and Evaluate Mobile Systems
Mobile systems are infrequently connected to the local
network; as a result they are often missed during routine
audits. Because these systems also have infrequent
communication with management systems, they are
more at risk for failing to comply with configuration
standards. SecurityExpressions includes an optional
add-on, Audit-on-Connect, to ensure that mobile
systems can be audited as they connect to the network
rather than on a fixed schedule, so systems that are
missed in a scheduled audit can be picked up the next
time they connect.
Supports Agentless and/or Agent-based Options
SecurityExpressions offers both an agentless and an
agent-based option that can be mixed and matched as
required across all Windows, UNIX and Linux desktops,
notebooks, and servers. The included agent does not
require administrative credentials and is a perfect
solution for auditing servers. SecurityExpressions also
has an agentless approach to reach tens of thousands of
systems, effective for auditing local or remote desktops.
