Compliance and Governance User Guide

Overview

This DEX Pack Lite displays compliance and governance information, such as whether systems have been updated and whether they adhere to security standards.

NOTE: BitLocker collection requires 10.12 agent or later for complete data.

Value Proposition

This feature offers a high-level overview of your estate’s security posture and compliance with current specifications. You can start by reviewing the Compliance section to get a comprehensive summary, then drill down into specific DEX Packs for detailed insights. For instance, you might start at Compliance and then dive deeper into the BIOS DEX Pack, the BitLocker DEX Pack, or other relevant items.

From there, you can select a specific channel and assess whether any actions are needed, such as addressing systems running Windows 10 Pro or Windows 11 Pro that should be upgraded to Enterprise versions. This structured approach helps you identify potential risks and ensures your systems meet necessary security and compliance standards.
