The integration of SCEP into SCCM in this version is flawless and will appeal to any Sysop looking for simplicity, and the overall management process is remarkably easy. The heuristics scanning that attempt to identify infections or threats that haven’t been identified yet is also improved in this version. In this version this feature is called Microsoft Active Protection Service and it’s a cloud based service that offer signature updates in near real time to combat newly identified threats for instance.

There are also new reports that make it easier to correlate user actions with infection rates.Īnother new feature in 2012 is Real Time Actions – also known as the Big Green Button – a way for administrators to push out urgent actions across a large number of clients to combat a particular infection through a quick or full scan for instance.Įarlier versions had a feature called Microsoft Spynet no points for guessing why the uptake of this service was less than enthusiastic. Messages about infections generated at the client are sent to the management server with high priority and these alerts can be sent to administrators as emails. Role Based Access Control is new in SCCM, consequently there’s a new Endpoint Protection Administrator role that can customized and scoped in larger environments.

In the RTM version you can only configure updates to go out once per day, in SP 1 you’ll be able to set it to every eight hours, to match Microsoft’s signature update publishing.Ĭontrolling how your clients receive signature updates is crucial in today’s distributed networks. New in SCEP 2012 is that the signatures are fanned out through the normal Distribution Points.

These are new to SCCM 2012 and bring the same functionality that’s been available in Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) where you can configure that particular types of updates (critical security patches) are automatically approved and deployed to sets of machines. The latter method is the most common and involves configuring Automatic Deployment Rules.

The second step is to configure signature distribution – SCEP clients can pick up their signatures from a file share, through Windows Update / Microsoft Update (Wu/Mu) or through software updates in SCCM. In the forthcoming Service Pack 1 (in CTP2, pre-beta at the time of writing) you can create a policy with just the differing settings and the client will automatically merge together targeted policies, making maintenance much smoother.Ĭontrolling Windows Firewall through the same policies used to control the overall antimalware solution makes for a smooth administration experience. In the RTM version you have to configure a custom policy with all the settings you desire for a particular subset of computers which means that you might end up with numerous similar policies to maintain.
