How to Use Automox
A cross-platform, lightweight agent combined with our cloud-native platform delivers full visibility and control over your entire infrastructure in minutes.
Step One
Install the Automox Agent
Download and install a single agent for all of your Windows, MacOS, and Linux systems. At only 5MB, the agent is highly efficient with low I/O and CPU overhead.
A persistent encrypted session with the Automox cloud securely manages your device.
After adding your devices, Automox inventories all hardware, software, patches, and configuration details.
Remediate patch vulnerabilities, deploy required software, and fix misconfigured systems without the need for multiple tools.
Looking for bulk deployment options?
Use our predefined scripts for tools such as Ansible and Active Directory to deploy from 1 to 100,000 or more endpoints.
Step Two
Create Policies
Policies automate cyber hygiene, helping you patch systems, ensure the right software is installed, and maintain configurations.
Create policies once and assign them to multiple groups of devices.
Quickly update policies for every device without the need to touch code or hardware.
One policy can manage a mix of Windows, MacOS, and Linux devices.
Step Three
Group Your Devices
Groups segment your organization and simplify management. Whether you sort your devices by department, OS, or region, groups simplify the management of your security infrastructure.
Full Multi-tenant Architecture
If you are managing many unique organizations or subsidiaries internally or for your customers, Automox provides tools to allow you to easily move between different instances. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) functionality allows you to assign owners and lock down access where appropriate. Contact sales to find out more.
Step Four
