Cross-Team Success with John Jakubowski

Episode 11   Published October 24, 2024 18 minute watch

Summary

John Jakubowski inherited an environment patched only through WSUS, with some PCs and servers untouched for over a year, after an acquisition cut his IT staff from more than 30 professionals to four. He tells host Ashley that an Automox trial pushed the environment past 75% patch compliance in three days. A four-person team now runs patching, third-party deployment, and security from one console. John, who says he is the security team, explains how group policy auto-installs the Automox agent, how site-based groups stage rollouts, and why built-in remote control replaced a separate remote tool.
