Somebody has to walk the route. Know what hardware exists. Know what is loaded on it. Know which of it slept through the last patch cycle. Notice the morning one of them stops calling in. Nobody gets credit for it, and it prevents more grief than anything else sold here.
N-able N-sight leaves an agent on each machine and keeps a ledger of it. Hardware fitted, software loaded, fixes outstanding, how the storage is bearing up, and whether it reported for duty this morning. Patch runs happen in a window you choose, since nobody wants a restart landing in the middle of a quarter end.
That same agent carries the filtering. Name lookups get measured against category and reputation rules while the machine is still deciding where to go, which turns away a quantity of trouble at the cheapest possible moment. It follows the laptop, so the rules at a hotel match the rules at the office.
The Apple estate goes to Addigy, and goes there properly. Configuration profiles, encryption posture, and update policy built around how Apple genuinely releases software, rather than translated across from a Windows product and hoped over.
Zimperium takes the handsets. A phone reads mail, keeps session tokens, and approves sign in prompts, which makes it a computer whatever anybody calls it. The judging happens on the handset, and it picks up hostile networks, sideloaded software, and links opened well away from any mail client.
Each figure here is pulled out of the billing service as this page opens. Load a line now and it waits in the bag until you have finished reading.
N-able N-sight is the round. An agent on each machine reports what hardware is there, what software is installed, which patches are missing, and whether the storage is nearing the end of its patience. Patching runs on a schedule, and a machine that stops reporting shows up as a gap rather than quietly disappearing.

Filtering that rides the agent you already have. Name lookups are checked against category and reputation policy before the machine ever opens a connection, which stops a quantity of trouble at a point where stopping it is cheap. No appliance goes in the rack and nothing has to be re-cabled.

Zimperium watches the handset itself. Malicious applications, hostile networks, phishing links opened outside the mail client, and operating system tampering. Phones read mail, hold session tokens, and approve sign in prompts, which makes them worth defending even though nobody thinks of them as computers.
| Carried on | Zimperium application on the handset |
|---|---|

| Held in transit | Threat findings reported to the console; detection runs on the device |

Fleet work is inventory, hygiene, and reach. It is not detection, and it never stands in for the standing watch.
