Take Control of Your Windows Environment
- 1. Take Control of Your Windows Environment Don’t be a Headline. Be a HERO.
- 3. Difficult to Manage and Control IT Infrastructure Growth User, Group, Account and System Sprawl Result: You don’t know what’s really going on inside your Windows network
- 4. Lack of Visibility, Loss of Control ► No centralized control of users, accounts, groups ► No means of rapidly changing configurations, when necessary Result: Organizations risk… Security Vulnerabilities System Downtime Lost Productivity Failed Audits
- 5. Time-consuming and Error-prone Manual Efforts Are Inefficient ► Manual tools work on per-system basis ► Scripts are time-consuming to create and maintain ► One failure affects multiple systems ► General purpose tools don’t handle the granular details Result: There’s no quick way to repair problems, even if you can identify them
- 6. Solving The Problem With Centralized Management
- 7. Proactive, Centralized Security Management Introducing User Manager Pro Suite (UMPS) ► Gain visibility into Windows systems ► Rapidly resolve problems ► Automate administration tasks ► Modify attributes en masse ► Generate real-time, interactive reports
- 8. Ask Yourself: Can You… See who has administrative access to your systems? Provide IT Auditors with reports on demand? See what patches and programs are installed? ? Remove obsolete machine accounts? Change all administrator passwords at once? Identify and block malicious software from running? UMPS can do all of this and more!
- 9. Windows Tools Can’t Do What UMPS Does How It’s Different Active Directory/SCCM UMPS Only for domain accounts Handles local & domain accounts Reporting from AD for application of policy settings is non-existent For SCCM, pushing system settings requires agents and reports are not interactive Makes configuration changes to all Windows systems concurrently and reports on the applied settings Reporting on installed software, hardware and sub-systems may require SCCM agents Provides on-demand reports on operational problems so you can take action to regain control quickly
- 11. Windows Service Management Challenges ► Too many services to manage manually ► Hard to find everywhere they are in use ► Services are missed in the account change process, thereby causing outages ► Scripts are unreliable
- 12. Time-consuming and Error-prone Manual Efforts Are Inefficient 1 Service Account x 3 Minutes to update a single service x 400 Servers = 1200 Minutes… 20 staff hours Assuming everything starts the first time and nothing breaks!
- 13. Introducing Service Account Manager (SAM) ► Provides a single view of every service on each Windows system ► Quickly updates service account credentials with a dynamic dependency analysis ► … from one console
- 14. Within 5 Minutes of Installing SAM Discover all services and accounts used by your servers and workstations See a consolidated view of every service running on every system in one console Make mass changes to service credentials in minutes without causing outages Schedule automated service restarts and system reboots Implement automated reporting for services status and change records

Editor's Notes
- Why does gaining control of your Windows Service Accounts matter?
- As the IT infrastructure grows to encompass more servers, workstations, users, accounts and groups it becomes increasingly difficult to stay in control
- Unauthorized programs, vulnerable administrator passwords, open shares and obsolete accounts are just some of the things that often go undetected on the Windows network The results are increased security vulnerabilities, system failures, downtime and lost productivity
- Manual efforts are inefficient They are time-consuming and error-prone
- Why does gaining control of your Windows Service Accounts matter?
- 5 tools in 1 unified suite Automate critical IT administration tasks on all managed Windows systems with just one click Reduce the amount of time spent on manual, error-prone and time-consuming IT administration tasks
- SCCM = System Center Configuration Manager UMPS is especially ideal when trying to respond to an incident, compared to AD.
- Manual efforts are inefficient They are time-consuming and error-prone Example: It will take 20 staff hours to update a single service account on 400 systems
- Key Points: We are not a startup. Lieberman Software has been around as an ISV since 1994. Our software is far from 1.0 and has been battle tested by a variety of firms around the world. We were awarded Microsoft Application Development Partner of 2015.
