Description
One of the more difficult tasks that information technology (IT) administrators face is to ensure that all the systems in their organization use, and retain, an optimal configuration at all times. IT administrators and team members must have confidence that the systems’ configurations are correct, regardless of whether they are monitoring changes to servers or documenting compliance requirements. The compliance settings feature can play a key role in documenting existing configurations, in quickly discovering systems that have undesired configuration changes, and in automatically remediating some undesired configurations. This module will detail the compliance settings feature, and how you can use it to manage your systems.
