TriActive 7.0
PC Security is a big issue for IT shops. A TriActive study of 350 SMB companies (140,000+ managed systems) showed that 15% of the PCs had no antivirus software installed. Another 6% with antivirus had out-of-date definitions older than 90 days. This led TriActive to extend their security capabilities in version 7 with new PC Security Assessment reports. A risk assessment report shows you in seconds which machines are at high, medium, and low risk. Other reports include systems missing antivirus, antispyware, and missing Microsoft critical patches.

TriActive listened to their customers' needs on managing the thousands of software titles in their environment.

"We've added over 250,000+ software titles to our software catalog, new for version 7. These titles are automatically assigned to one or more of over 75 common software categories providing insight into the many different types of software their end users have installed," said Halversen. "This gives an IT staff complete visibility into what FTP, chat, personal use applications, and antivirus software titles, for example are installed in their environment. We've normalized the many vendor, title, and versions reported in their environments, cleaning up all the inconsistencies that make managing software a nightmare. This allows TriActive 7.0 to roll-up license counts for all the different versions of each title, greatly simplifying license compliance reporting."

Also new to version 7 is Web Remote Control. What this adds is the ability for IT staff to control PCs anywhere, from anywhere, both in attended and unattended modes. This means that rogue end users systems can be controlled even when their VPN access doesn't work. This gives the IT staff more access to mobile users than they've ever had.
