BigFix

A recurring theme in Threat and Risk Assessments performed by TRM Technologies Inc over the years has been the poor track record of traditional approaches to network configuration management.  Poorly patched software on servers and end-points are routinely exploited by attackers, and TRM felt that a better way was needed to perform this critical function.

After extensively researching the topic and talking about different approaches with our consultant group, TRM settled on BigFix as the overwhelming favourite to fill this need.
