BigFix integration
Enterprise endpoint discovery and patch management at scale
What it connects
- Get real-time inventory of all managed endpoints with OS, hardware, and IP details across Windows, Linux, macOS, and UNIX
- Retrieve logical computer groups and team memberships to organize endpoints by function and location
- Access available patches, tasks, and fixlets from content sites to understand remediation options
- Query deployment actions and their current status to track what's been deployed and where
What it automates
- Deploy patches and custom tasks to targeted computers or groups in bulk
- Stop running actions to pause or cancel deployments mid-flight
- Update individual computer client settings to enforce security and compliance policies
- Create dynamic computer groups based on relevance rules for better targeting and compliance monitoring
In practice
Discover which computers are missing critical security patches and automatically deploy fixes during your maintenance window
Group endpoints by OS type or network location, then monitor compliance by checking deployment action status across each group
Run ad-hoc relevance queries to find endpoints matching security criteria, then push configuration updates or security baselines
Track endpoint health and patch application across thousands of machines by querying agent last-report times and deployment history
