Overview

Device Management in DSALTA provides continuous visibility into the security posture of employee devices. It ensures that endpoints meet your organization’s security requirements and remain compliant over time.

Instead of relying on one-time checks or manual confirmations, DSALTA continuously monitors device-level security controls and converts them into audit-ready evidence.

What Device Management Covers

DSALTA Device Management focuses on endpoint security fundamentals, including:

  • Disk encryption status

  • Firewall configuration

  • Antivirus presence

  • Screen lock enforcement

  • Password manager usage

  • Operating system version and device identity

These checks apply to company-owned and employee-owned devices used to access internal systems.

Supported Operating Systems

DSALTA Device Management currently supports:

  • Windows (Windows 10 and later)

  • macOS (modern macOS versions with FileVault support)

  • Linux (major distributions with standard security tooling)

Each operating system is evaluated using native system signals and platform-specific checks.

Structure

Step 1: Device enrollment

Employees install the DSALTA Device Monitor on their device using a secure registration key.

Step 2: Secure activation

The device is authenticated and linked to the employee’s account.


Step 3: Continuous monitoring

DSALTA periodically collects system-level signals required for security and compliance.


Step 4: Status evaluation

Each device is evaluated against predefined security checks.


Step 5: Visibility & action

Admins can instantly see risks, status gaps, and remediation needs.
