Endpoint Patch Management for Audits: A Practical Guide for IT Teams

How European IT teams use CapaOne to automate patch deployment, track exceptions, and produce audit documentation without manual consolidation across tools.  Auditors rarely fail organizations because patches were not installed. They fail organizations because the evidence is missing. Effective endpoint patch management is not just about deploying updates — it is about proving, at any point in time, what was patched, when it […]

NIS2 requirements for endpoint management

NIS2 Requirements for Endpoint Management: A Practical Guide

NIS2 does not tell you which tools to buy. It tells you what you must be able to prove. For endpoint teams, that difference changes everything.  Most organizations subject to NIS2 already have patching processes, endpoint tools, and security policies in place. The compliance gap is rarely a question of intent. It is a question of evidence. NIS2 emphasizes operational capability […]

NIS2 Endpoint Compliance and Denmark’s New Cybersecurity Strategy

Denmark just made endpoint governance a national priority. If your organisation cannot demonstrate continuous visibility and audit-ready patch compliance, the gap is no longer just a security risk — it is a regulatory and reputational one.  On 28 January 2026, the Danish government and a broad parliamentary majority agreed on a national cybersecurity strategy for 2026–2029, backed […]

6 Best Cloud Endpoint Management Platforms for 2026

Most mid-sized IT teams run five endpoint tools. They only need one.   Managing endpoints across a 200–1,000 employee organization has become a balancing act.

The Endpoint Automation Gap: 73% Want It, 23% Have It

Most sysadmins know exactly what they want. The tools they have are not delivering it.  You already know you want more automation. Most sysadmins do. The question is why it is not happening yet — and what the platform that actually delivers it looks like. PDQ surveyed 1,034 IT professionals between October and December 2025. The finding that stands out is not the stress data. It is the automation gap: 73% of sysadmins […]

M365 E5 from July 2026: The Third-Party Application Gap

Microsoft adds EPM and EAM to E5. The third-party application stack — everything outside Microsoft’s catalog — remains your responsibility.  Your M365 E5 license is about to include more endpoint management capabilities. The question worth asking before July 1 is not what Microsoft is adding — it is whether what they are adding covers the application management problem […]

How to Consolidate Endpoint Management Into One Platform

Five tools. Five renewal dates. Five places to look when something breaks. Complexity is free. It just costs you later. Most IT teams did not choose complexity. It accumulated — one point solution at a time. A patching tool here. A provisioning tool there. A separate solution for privilege management. A monitoring add-on. Before long, […]

Ransomware Chains Six Zero-Days: What Stops the Attack

A privilege escalation exploit is patched. A Defender bypass is not. The question is what your endpoint architecture does while the window is still open.   Six Windows exploits in six weeks. One of them has a patch. One does not. And together they form an active ransomware delivery chain that Huntress confirmed exploited in production […]
