What does the Basic Endpoint Security Hygiene Second Edition include?

The product includes a 60-plus file digital playbook delivered by email within 24 business hours. You receive approximately 30-40 XLSX spreadsheets (assessment matrices, roadmaps, dashboards) and 20-30 PDF guides (playbooks, runbooks, reference cards), organised into the Platinum Tier centrepieces, Getting Started, Self-Assessment, Requirements, Models, Processes, Performance, Governance, Sustainment, Advanced Topics and Reference sections, plus onboarding notes.

If you leave endpoint security hygiene unmanaged, your devices become open doors for ransomware, unauthorised access and costly regulatory penalties - and every missed patch or weak policy raises the risk of a breach that can cripple your business. Basic Endpoint Security Hygiene Second Edition puts an end to that risk by giving you a ready-to-use, 60-plus file digital playbook that lets you assess, remediate and prove your endpoint controls before an audit or attack forces you to react.
