Stefan Korsbacken is the Nordic Sales Manager for IBM. He is presenting on IBM's Tivoli Endpoint Manager (TEM), which is based on BigFix Technologies. TEM provides a single management platform for securing and managing servers, desktops, laptops and mobile devices across operating systems. It offers modules for lifecycle management, security and compliance, patch management, and power management. TEM aims to help organizations simplify endpoint management and gain visibility and control over all their devices.
2. Today’s Endpoint Management
Challenges Drive IT Costs Up Virtualization technology
More than 50% of end users usage continues to grow
change their security rapidly; increasing
settings management challenges
Endpoint Management Cost
Up to 95% of the workforce are
mobile; connectivity is often
inconsistent and unreliable
Most enterprises need several OS to run their
business; requiring multiple tools,
infrastructures & breadth of expertise
Confidentiality, integrity and availability needs
to be proven – for all endpoints, everywhere
Endpoint Management Complexity

• Smartphones have been in the enterprise for many years, though IT
organizations have historically restricted employees to a limited set
of supported options
• The availability of mobile devices with high consumer appeal (iOS and
Android) are changing these dynamics as employees are demanding
support of a broader range of devices, including employee-owned assets
