BigFix products leverage a single infrastructure, single agent, and console, enabling continuous monitoring, threat protection, and incident response across servers, laptops, and desktops regardless of their location. A dynamic, content-driven messaging and management system, this innovative technology distributes the work of managing IT infrastructures out to the managed devices themselves, providing for unparalleled scalability and flexibility. The single, multipurpose agent controls multiple services regardless of where the endpoint is, optimizing configuration control and minimizing security risks. Below is a listing of the name changes. Old program name IBM Endpoint Manager Platform IBM Endpoint Manager for Patch Management IBM Endpoint Manager for Lifecycle Management IBM Endpoint Manager Starter Kit for Lifecycle Management IBM Endpoint Manager for Security and Compliance IBM Endpoint Manager for Core Protection IBM Endpoint Manager for Core Protection Data Loss Prevention Add-on IBM Endpoint Manager for Software Use Analysis New program name IBM BigFix Platform IBM BigFix Patch IBM BigFix Lifecycle IBM BigFix Starter Kit for Lifecycle IBM BigFix Compliance IBM BigFix Protection IBM BigFix Inventory Program product media packs, electronic download images, publications, and license information will reference the old program names. Note: Completion of renaming will occur with future announcements of new product releases and versions. New trade-up options Two new Managed Virtual Server license options, that support trade-up scenarios from the BigFix Starter Kit to the full BigFix Lifecycle offering, are available. The Managed Virtual Server price metric simplifies pricing and is based on the number of server operating systems that a business needs to manage. This broader solution adds a number of key features beyond the BigFix Starter Kit for Lifecycle, including IBM United States Software Announcement IBM is a registered trademark of International Business Machines Corporation 1

2 operating system deployment, for re-imaging either to repair a computer or to deploy an operating system deployment on new machines (bare metal deployment). In addition, BigFix Lifecycle supports remote control capabilities to decrease onsite servicing costs, as well as advanced patch management, which reduces security exposures on mission critical servers. For ordering, contact your IBM representative or an IBM Business Partner. For more information, contact the Americas Call Centers at: 800-IBM-CALL ( ). Reference: YE001 Key prerequisites Refer to the Software requirements section. Planned availability date July 7, 2015 Description IBM BigFix platform The core BigFix platform, the foundation architecture on which BigFix applications are delivered, includes powerful user and role-based security controls, broad platform coverage for the agent (90 plus operating system versions), and ongoing improvements for stability and performance throughout the console. IBM BigFix Patch BigFix Patch optimizes the patch process by integration with native patch management tools provided by supported operating system vendors in order to simplify and automate the patch management process. IBM BigFix Lifecycle BigFix Lifecyle, formerly known as IBM Endpoint Manager for Lifecycle Management, delivers comprehensive and powerful solutions for IT operations. In addition, BigFix Lifecycle now includes server automation capabilities and power management capabilities through the incorporation of two previously independent IBM Endpoint Manager solutions (IBM Endpoint Manager for Server Automation and IBM Endpoint Manager for Power Management). IBM BigFix Starter Kit for Lifecycle BigFix Starter Kit for Lifecycle contains a subset of the broader BigFix Lifecycle functionality, including patch assessment and deployment as well as software distribution, and hardware and software inventory. IBM BigFix Compliance BigFix Compliance delivers security configuration checklists that align with the most up-to-date industry and government benchmarks such as provided by the Center for Internet Security (CIS), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). IBM BigFix Protection BigFix Core Protection delivers near real-time protection from malware and other malicious threats through file and web reputation, personal firewall, behavior monitoring, and more. It can protect physical and virtual endpoints from damage IBM United States Software Announcement IBM is a registered trademark of International Business Machines Corporation 2

3 caused by viruses, Trojan horses, worms, spyware, rootkits, web threats, and their new variants. BigFix Core Protection DLP Add-on offers a robust data loss prevention and device control solution that integrates into the anti-virus and anti-malware capabilities provided by the core protection solution to secure data, enforce security policies, and comply with the growing number of data privacy laws that affect the industry. IBM BigFix Inventory BigFix Inventory provides the foundation for holistic software asset management by discovering all licensed and unlicensed software with in-depth granularity across all devices. It delivers the ability to monitor the number of copies deployed versus the number owned, which helps to keep organizations in compliance. For additional information about the functionality available in the new program modules, refer to the old program module names in the previous IBM Endpoint Manager V9.0 and IBM Endpoint Manager V9.2 software announcements listed in the Reference information section.

19 Statement of good security practices IT system security involves protecting systems and information through prevention, detection, and response to improper access from within and outside your enterprise. Improper access can result in information being altered, destroyed, or misappropriated or can result in misuse of your systems to attack others. Without a comprehensive approach to security, no IT system or product should be considered completely secure and no single product or security measure can be completely effective in preventing improper access. IBM systems and products are designed to be part of a comprehensive security approach, which will necessarily involve additional operational procedures, and may require other systems, products, or services to be most effective. IBM does not warrant that systems and products are immune from the malicious or illegal conduct of any party.
