Patch Management for Roaming Users



All of us understand the importance of applying Software Patches on regular basis . We know that if we do not regularly apply Software Patches , we become easy targets for Virus and Cyber attacks. Many Customers have also invested in various Software Tools which help them distribute Software Patches . But most of these tools work only over a LAN and so are setup typically in the Head Office only. As a result the devices of the roaming users are often compromised .


The good news is that there is an excellent Cloud based IT Infrastructure Management Solution which does Patch Management, in addition to host of other things .

Centrally Manage Mobiles, Tablets and Computers with the Cloud



Almost every Company allows users to access Corporate Data from their personal mobiles and tablets and Home Computers.  But one strange fact is that while the I.T. Team takes great care to protect the Work PC by applying patches centrally , locking down the device and monitoring them, they are absolutely clueless when it comes to managing the User owned device like Mobiles , Tablets and personal Computers. It’s like putting 3 locks on your main door but leaving your Windows wide open. As a result , the User Devices constitute the biggest threat to Companies in terms of data loss and Cyber Crimes.

Partial Offline Sync of Cloud files in One Drive For Business





Office 365 Productivity Platform comes bundled with One Drive for Business which can store One Terabyte of Documents . You can also sync the One Drive For Business ( ODFB) with your PC . However , so far the issue was that the complete ODFB would sync offline. A common feedback from Customers was that it would be great if they could selectively sync the folders offline as they were not keen to have their full ODFB synced. This functionality was always present in the Consumer One Drive .


The good news is that the selective sync is  finally available on ODFB
