As an IBM premier business partner, Raven Bay is invited to many IBM technology briefings.   I recently attended an interesting session regarding IBM’s Tivoli Endpoint Manager which leverages IBM’s latest “Big Fix” acquisition.  This software suite focuses on four key areas:

• Are organizations aware of all endpoints in their IT environment?
• Does security reach across all of the organization’s endpoints?
• Does the organization’s patch management process protect from the latest threats?
• How can power management be leveraged while minimizing end user impact and supporting “corporate social responsibility” by reducing Co2 emissions?

IBM’s Tivoli Endpoint Manager (TEM) provides lifecycle management, security and compliance, patch management and power management modules which can be deployed quickly and without impacting the bandwidth of the enterprise.  

TEM software is loaded as an agent on every end point (perfect for complex and diverse IT environments) and is managed through a common console on a dedicated TEM server.  The ratio of server to endpoints is one server for every 250,000 endpoints.

For more detailed information regarding Tivoli Endpoint Manager and the four modules, please refer to IBM’s website:
