Symantec targets client management

摘要

Symantec last week unveiled a suite of client management applications that the company says will converge management features, security capabilities and storage tools to help customers more easily maintain, secure and restore end-user desktops and other client devices. The company says it has brought together capabilities from its Norton anti-virus and Ghost back-up and recovery tools with systems management technology acquired in February 2004 from On Technology to deliver its LiveState Client Management Suite. The suite includes seven software applications. Some are stand-alone, others are add-ons that snap into other products. They address, desktop management tasks such as asset discovery, software delivery, configuration management, patch management, vulnerability assessment, imaging, migration, remote control, and backup and recovery.
