These release notes provide information about the KACE Privilege Manager for Windows release.
Topics:
Giving users administrator rights creates security risks but must be weighed against constant help desk calls for basic operations like updating Adobe Reader, Java, or simply changing the time zone on desktops.
Privilege Manager lets you grant selected privileges to users so they can update their own computers, reducing help desk calls while maintaining a secure network. By automating user privilege settings, Privilege Manager keeps users working; this enables you to focus on higher priority tasks, for exceptional resource and time savings.
As a system administrator, you can use Privilege Manager to elevate and manage user rights quickly and precisely with validation logic targeting technology. This provides administrators the ability to create rules that allow administrator-level access to specific applications for specifics users. You can also enable your end users to request elevated privileges for specific applications through Self-Service and Instant Elevation.
