Title: Security Configuration Management (SCM) and Client Manager for Endpoint Protection (CMEP) App in WebUI

Security Configuration Management (SCM) App:

Details: BigFix Compliance SCM App utilizes the new WebUI design to provide a streamlined workflow for better user experience in managing devices in a BigFix network. With SCM App checklists, security teams can define the security parameters and configurations that corporate policies require. It also helps the operators assess and manage device configurations through checks, checklists, synchronization and provides remediation action if devices do not meet compliance standards.

  • Landing page: Implementation of data grid for custom and external checklists in the SCM App landing page allows you to view, search, and sort checklists based on various properties such as No. of checks, created, updated, subscribed device count, platform, and status.

  • Create: You can create both custom checklist and custom check using the Create drop-down in the landing page.

  • Compliance check creation wizard: This wizard allows you to create checks using SCM relevance and Unix content method.

  • Inline reports: SCM App leverages the Inline reports feature available in BigFix WebUI and generates a separate donut chart and bar graphs for the selected custom or external checklist. These chart and graph provide an overall status of the checklist by assessing the available checks in both custom and external checklist.

  • Checklist details page: Added four new columns in the contents tab of custom checklist details page and external checklist details page. The new columns are deployment percentage, undeployed device count, compliance percentage, and non-compliant devices count which also contributes to inline reporting. Additionally, Content ID column is added in the external checklist details page.

  • Export: This feature allows you to customize and download the custom or external checklist reports in .csv, .xlsx, or .pdf formats.

  • Show/Hide summary: This feature allows you to display and hide the inline reports for both custom and external checklist.

  • Modifying checks: You can edit or delete a custom copy of a check or the checks which are created and added to the custom checklist. Also, you can add multiple relevance and remediation script when you edit the check.
