At Applivery, we’re committed to providing you with the best tools for managing your devices and applications, and this month is no exception. We’re excited to announce new features designed to enhance security, management, and efficiency in your workflow. In this article, we’ll dive into the latest updates for August.
File management for macOS Devices
The wait is over! With the Applivery agent for macOS, you can now manage files on your devices easily and quickly. This new feature allows you to add files to your policies and distribute them efficiently across your teams.
What types of files can you manage?
- Books: Distribute relevant manuals or eBooks directly to your users’ devices.
- Certificates: Simplify the management of digital certificates or security credentials, ensuring that all your devices are ready to operate in secure environments.
- Images: Send corporate images, custom wallpapers, or other graphic files that you need to distribute centrally.
How are files distributed?
You can configure file distribution across three different scopes for added flexibility:
- Primary user: Ideal if you need the file to be available only to the primary user of the device.
- All users: Distribute files so they are available to all users who share the device.
- System: If the file needs to be available at the system level, not dependent on any particular user.
This feature ensures seamless distribution and management of essential files across your macOS devices. You just need to enable the Applivery macOS agent and start managing your files without hassle. For more details on how to use this tool, you can visit our documentation.
New Compliance check on Android: Security posture
Security is a top priority for any organization. That’s why we’ve added a new security posture assessment in our compliance check for Android devices.
What does this new verification include?
This new compliance check evaluates the security status of your Android devices in real time, ensuring they meet the necessary security standards to avoid vulnerabilities.
- Enhanced security: With this new feature, you can be confident that your Android devices are secure and comply with your organization’s internal policies.
- Real-Time assessment: The security posture assessment is performed in real time, so you’ll always be aware of the current status of each device.
- Status report: If any device is potentially compromised, you’ll receive a detailed report highlighting the security status and necessary actions to remediate it.
This improvement provides a comprehensive and continuous assessment, allowing you to maintain high levels of security across your fleet of Android devices.
App distribution improvements
Efficient app management is key to maintaining productivity. That’s why we’ve introduced several improvements in app distribution to optimize your workflow.
Build Management Updates
- Edit and share directly from the Build List: You can now edit and share your builds directly from the build list. With a new three-dot action menu at the end of each build, managing your builds is now faster and easier than ever.
- Color tags: Organize and find your builds at a glance with our new color tags. This visual feature will help you easily identify versions, statuses, or priorities of your builds without needing to open each one.
- Changelog preview in Build Details: You can now preview the changelog of your builds. This preview allows you to ensure that all information is correct before launching a new version.
These improvements are designed to make your workflow smoother and more efficient, and we hope they enhance your experience with Applivery, simplifying device management and app distribution in your organization. We love continuing to innovate to help you optimize every aspect of your work.
