To really meet business imperatives IT has to operate effectively in 3D – across data centers, desktops, and mobile devices. With the BigFix Unified Platform, organizations can see, change, and continuously enforce critical IT policies and processes globally, or on individual endpoints, with a single agent and console. Other vendors can operate in one or two dimensions, but no other technology in the market delivers what BigFix does!

IT staff continue to be forced to do more with less. BigFix rises to the challenge of IT budget crunches by offering high

performance security and systems management designed for rapid time-to-value, low overhead, and optimized operations.

Speci­fically, the BigFix Unifi­ed Management Platform delivers the following cost-saving benefi­ts: real-time visibility, unprecedented

scalability, infrastructure consolidation, power management, software asset management, patch management, and security

con­figuration management.

Green IT

BigFix provides a scalable and flexible approach to computer power management, ensuring that IT can do its job and business

operations are not disrupted. BigFix Wake-on-LAN and flexible opt-in capabilities allows organizations to meet the needs of IT

staff and end users while still reducing overall energy usage by as much as 40%. Additionally, using BigFix reporting, you can get

accurate data on your energy usage, costs, and savings.

ITIL Enablement

The BigFix ITIL solution gives you a pervasive view of all assets and delivers continuous real-time assessment, remediation, and

reporting throughout the asset lifecycle. The program scales as your assets grow and provides automated policy enforcement for

both ­fixed and remote devices, allowing organizations to maintain con­figurations on the endpoint and track changes as soon as

they are made. BigFix’s unique combination of key features is vital to ensuring the success of an ITIL program.

Regulatory and Policy Compliance

Organizations can eliminate the challenges and reduce the costs associated with managing compliance by leveraging the BigFix

Uni­ed Management Platform to help increase visibility, centrally manage all endpoints, and remediate issues identifi­ed on any

managed asset. IT Operations and IT Security can leverage a unified assessment, remediation, and reporting tool to foster

communication and ensure accuracy of reporting against compliance initiatives.

Infrastructure Consolidation

For any organization, security and systems management consolidation can provide huge cost-saving rewards. Thanks to its

distributed intelligence architecture, BigFix’s Unifi­ed Management Platform is scalable from 1,000 to 250,000 endpoints with

minimal dedicated hardware requirements—one server manages up to 250,000 endpoints. BigFix administrators enjoy full

control of the computing assets at their ­fingertips, and they are typically capable of handling the work of several administrators

using traditional solutions. Regardless of the number of managed devices, with BigFix, a single FTE can manage the entire

systems and security management lifecycle.

Virtualization Management

In virtualized environments, BigFix helps organizations achieve IT security compliance by detecting and enforcing security

con­figuration policies—on both physical and virtual machines. This enables the organization to consolidate and unify the

compliance lifecycle, reducing endpoint con­figuration and remediation times from days and weeks to minutes and hours. For

patching, BigFix provides capabilities for real-time discovery, scanning, and updating of offline and online VMs.

Government

BigFix has a proven track record in providing security and IT operation solutions to government agencies. Whether it’s for a

federal civilian agency, the Department of Defense, the Intelligence Community or state and local governments, BigFix has a

proven real-time situational awareness and remediation platform for all IT assets regardless of OS, location or network

connectivity status. The BigFix Unifi­ed Management Console delivers over 18 solutions for critical IT initiatives using a single

agent and console for mandates and programs
