Question

What are the security risks associated with endpoint management?

Answer

Attackers place most of their efforts on exploiting endpoints, and new endpoint exploits are appearing at an ever-increasing rate. There are too many updates to the OS and applications are released too frequently to possibly keep all endpoints up to date on all security patches, compliance best practices, and security benchmarks.
