These reports can be used as reference data to aid in budget calculations. Efficient inventory management Device data can be automatically collected over the network for periodically confirming the devices connected to the network. The most up-to-date status of IT asset data is constantly maintained by simply registering newly detected devices and changing the owners of existing devices. Peripheral devices without an IP address (such as displays, hard disks, printers, and USB memory) are associated with the PC for registration and management as IT assets. Job Management Partner 1 supports efficient inventory by enabling output of IT asset data for use in checking the actual devices against an IT asset list, even for IT assets that are not connected to the network. Even if the owner of a PC or device is changed due to a change in job position or transfer of control, its existence on the network can still be confirmed. The location of devices on the network can also be easily identified from the IP address and other data. Enables filtering by type of agreement, company, and expiration date.

Job Management Partner 1 verifies compliance with security measures, and if a problem is found, it can issue a message to request action and can force the distribution and installation of anti-virus software and other programs. Checking the software installation status Job Management Partner 1 can determine the installation status of software and take appropriate action, for example by automatically installing mandatory software or removing prohibited items. This makes it easy to provide a work environment to use only pre-authorized software. Checking the use of prohibited services Job Management Partner 1 can check if prohibited services are running on individual PCs. Efficient patch distribution Job Management Partner 1 provides a list of program updates, such as patches from Microsoft, along with the scripts to install them. They can be packaged in a format that provides one touch distribution when the need arises. This enables trouble-free and complete installation of patches, which are vital for security management of PCs, and reduces the administrative workload. Restricting prohibited operations If prohibited operations are attempted the user can be notified by a pop-up message, or the administrator can be notified by e-mail. Uninstallation of prohibited software can also be controlled remotely by the administrator. Examples of restricting prohibited operations Printing from a PC where printing is not allowed Running prohibited software Use of an unapproved USB memory device Writing to CD/DVD media, and so on Logging operations related to leaks Job Management Partner 1 enables logging of operations related to taking data outside the company, such as uploading data to the Web, sending e-mail, or copying to a USB memory device. Main log data PC startup/stop, logon/logoff, process start/stop File (folder) operations and printing Connection and disconnection of external media Access to Web, uploading, and downloading Sending and receiving by FTP Sending of e-mails with file attachments, saving of files with mail attachments, and so on Checking OS security settings Password settings Job Management Partner 1 can check for password vulnerabilities, such as the use of a PC password identical to the account name, and check the number of days since the password was last changed. Strong password settings can prevent unauthorized access to a PC by guessing a vulnerable password. Screensaver settings Job Management Partner 1 can check whether a screensaver is set, whether it is password protected, the time delay until it is activated, and other options. Full control over the various screensaver settings helps prevent unauthorized PC access when a user leaves their seat. Security diagnostic report The security diagnosis report uses graphs and tables to provide an overall, category-based assessment of security for managed PC's. The security diagnosis report can be displayed for a user selectable period, providing confirmation of the security measures in effect and enabling administrators to take corrective action for PC's with low ratings. ➊ Setting restrictions ➋ Transfer restrictions Restrictions Prohibited software Software X Software Y ➏ Notification of prohibited software use e-mail notification Administrator Dashboard (Security management) If Software A is permitted ➌ User runs the software OK!

Desktop Management Automation Monitoring Enterprise support for desktop management Multi-tenant support for efficient management IT asset management of multiple companies (tenants) in a cloud environment requires independence of systems and establishing security. Job Management Partner 1/IT Desktop Management Manager enables integrated management of the IT asset management from multiple companies using a single manager machine, and at the same time, allows multi-tenant IT asset management capable of separating management between different companies. IT asset management servers that were once required for each company can now be integrated into a single server to reduce costs. Limitations are imposed on settings and browsing scope to prevent a tenant from viewing from another tenant. Independence of systems and establishment of security are provided, enabling high-efficiency management. This multi-tenant IT asset management can be used not only for multiple companies, but also for different sites or departments within the same company by dividing them into tenant units. For example, if administrators within a company are distributed at multiple sites, the IT asset management server for all sites can be integrated into a single server, and management roles can be divided with one administrator responsible for the entire set of IT assets and other administrators responsible for the IT assets of the respective site. This system prevents mixing of between tenants despite the use of an integrated server, enabling reduced management workloads and provides fewer opportunities for operational mistakes. Management of all departments Setting management ranges for each administrator Operation scope Branch A Setting management ranges for each administrator Operation scope Branch B Company administrator Manager IT asset data Other responsible departments can also be added to the operation scope Branch A administrator Management using a single manager Branch B administrator Sales office administrator Relay servers for providing enhanced scalability Job Management Partner 1/IT Desktop Management Manager enables integrated management using a single manager even in large-scale environments with many management points. However, as the number of management points increases, the load on the network also increases when collecting inventory data and distributing programs and data. In these situations, a relay server can be installed between the manager and agent for distributing the load on the network. This enables reduced traffic between the manager and agent when distributing the same program or data to a large number of agents at the same time. The operation logs for each agent can also be distributed and stored on the relay server which enables browsing the logs without reducing performance. Configuring multiple relay servers in a network segment provides further stability and redundancy, while maintaining centralized control. Changes to the network are easily accomplished by modifying a single definitions file. Even in a large scale environment with many management points, Job Management Partner 1 presents a modest workload for administrators providing efficient system management.

In recent years a growing number of data leaks have occurred bringing to the attention a wide range of security and compliance issues. Appropriate measures must be in place to address the risks of important data being taken outside the company, usage of personal PCs for work, virus infections, and more. To help maintain the health and integrity of the company, Job Management Partner 1 supports PC security measures from the four perspectives of control connections, control usage, control dissemination, and monitor activity. Inside company Control connections Company LAN Unauthorized PC PC that violates policy Server Unauthorized software Control usage Cannot run Information leakage Use of authorized software Travel location/remote site Control dissemination Carrying out of internal Information 13
PC security measures from four perspectives Automation Monitoring Control connections - PCs that violate policies and unauthorized PCs are rejected from the network. Control usage - Running of unauthorized software can be blocked. Control dissemination - Copying and printing to removable media is prohibited. Monitor activity - Complete tracking of when, where, who, what, and how operations were performed is possible. Saving of confidential data to personal PC is blocked PCs that violate policy and unauthorized PCs are not allowed to connect to the company LAN Log and warnings Unauthorized software cannot run Monitor activity Operation log list Cannot copy to unauthorized media Operation tracking window Cannot print to an unauthorized 14
