Desktop Authority

Desktop Authority offers the power of multiple products in one solution; robust user workspace management, powerful desktop management, dynamic desktop security, and unique remote support capabilities all tightly integrated with Validation Logic, ScriptLogic’s patented targeting engine.

Validation Logic enables administrators to define the desktop configuration and automate management tasks for one specific user, the entire company, and anything in between.

Unlike traditional management products or native Windows tools that require extensive customisation or the writing and debugging of custom scripts, Desktop Authority provides a level of flexible, precise control over your environment no other product can offer.

Targeted Desktop Management

Desktop Authority provides a powerful targeting of settings based on a wide range of user and computer properties, grouping configurations into easily manageable profiles using our patented Validation Logic.

Software Deployment

With Desktop Authority you can centrally deploy MSI-based applications via a distributed MSI repository.  Edit MSIs directly from within the repository with MSI Studio.

Hardware / Software Management

Desktop Authority allows you to manage each clients hardware and software by reporting against information stored centrally in an SQL database.

Reporting

Desktop Authority allows you to report on inventory, patch status, user activity and more with turnkey and custom reports.

Remote Support

Lower help desk calls and eliminate trips to the desktop with web-based remote support functionality that operates independently from the fully credentialed Desktop Authority console.

Centralised Security

Desktop Authority helps prevent data theft, keeping desktops and servers patched, removing spyware and restricting access to applications from a secure, centralised console.
