Introduction to LCW
Business Challenges

                                            • Many vulnerability solutions cover specific
                                              software and applications, but don’t expand to
                                              custom in-house software detection and
                                              remediation.

                                            • PC configuration-related issues continuously
                                              increase your IT staff’s workload and introduce
                                              new sources of risk every day

                                            • Tedious manual system management tasks
                                              consume too much time, effort, and resources

                                            • Organizations are more distributed than ever
                                              before, making software distribution and
                                              management a major challenge

What’s new in 7.1?

Feature                                        Benefit
Windows Firewall Wizard                        Administrators are now able to detect and define
                                               Windows Firewall Policies for Windows Vista and higher
                                               operating systems.
Role-Based Access Control for                  Content authors can now create and modify content
LCW                                            without requiring SQL SysAdmin fixed server role.
MSU Compatibility                              Windows Stand-alone Installer (MSU) was first
                                               introduced by Microsoft in Windows Vista and higher.
                                               MSU is a new Package Manager that is designed to
                                               patch the base operating system. 7.1 extends the
                                               existing New Patch Wizard capabilities to support this
                                               new file type so the wizard can easily create the
                                               detection and remediation signatures.

LCW Best Practices

• Create a custom group for testing your content
     » Make sure your group represents your environment
        • Windows XP / 2003
        • Windows 7 / Windows 2008


• Assign a custom Agent Policy Set and change the Patch Module
  communication interval to 5 minutes
     » Reduces the time to wait for the detection results to appear in the L.E.M.S.S.
       Web Console, or Leverage the Listener Port.

• Turn off the following settings in the Tools > Options > Agents Page
     » DAU should be run after subscription replication
        •   Improves system performance
     » DAU should be run after inventory change
        •   Improves system performance
