CIS Controls 3.6; 4.3; 4.7; 4.10; 4.11; 10.3: 

Establish and maintain the secure configuration of end-user devices, servers and software; encrypt data on end-user devices and disable autorun for removable media

Enforce secure endpoint configurations 

Build and maintain secure configurations that adhere to both the high-level CIS control framework and more specific CIS Benchmarks. 

Automate the enforcement and validation of virtually any configuration across any number of endpoints, whether onsite or remote, enterprise- or employee-owned, or new or existing ones.

What Our Customers Say

Without adequate patch management in place, I would have to go around to each individual machine to keep them updated. It could leave us open to security vulnerabilities, as a manual approach always leaves a gap for patches to be missed

Chris Delez

Information Systems & Building Manager, Area Agency on Aging of Broward County

With our previous tool, we were under constant risk, as 20% of our network was not being patched with security updates because they were off-site or not joined to our company domain. Action1 addresses this security gap by enabling us to establish a robust patch management program that covers 100% of our devices.
Joe Holder

IT Director, The Arthur Companies

We are audited for ISO 27001:2018, and patch management is one of the requirements. Thanks to Action1, we’ve set up patching policies that meet our organization’s needs. As a result, we update the whole infrastructure in minutes. We also leverage Action1 to monitor the state of our IT assets as required by ISO 27001:2018.
