Windows – Outdated Profile Removal

The Windows Old Profile Removal Worklet is especially useful for system administrators seeking to free up storage space and improve security on their Windows endpoints. By automating the removal of outdated user profiles, this Worklet keeps your systems from being bogged down by unnecessary data. The straightforward PowerShell script identifies profiles that exceed a predetermined age, removing them to maintain a lean and efficient operating environment.

Outdated profiles can contain sensitive data and consume disk space, posing potential security risks. By eliminating these profiles, you can enable your systems to run smoothly and securely, at scale, with this Worklet.

macOS – Disable Guest Access to Shared Folders

Enhancing the security of macOS endpoints has never been easier with the Disable Allow Guests to Connect to Shared Folders Worklet. This automation script modifies library preferences and adjusts guest account permissions to disable guest access to shared folders. As a result, it improves your macOS endpoint defenses against unauthorized access.

This Worklet is an effective way to strengthen your macOS endpoint security posture and allow only authorized users to access shared resources.

Windows – Audit Local Administrator Accounts

The Audit Local Administrator Accounts Worklet allows administrators to monitor and audit all local administrator accounts on Windows endpoints. By identifying accounts that could pose security risks, you can swiftly address potential vulnerabilities, maintaining a secure IT environment.

Employing this Worklet is crucial for organizations seeking greater control over their systems. Local administrator accounts can inadvertently lead to system instability, or system breach, if not properly managed. By auditing these accounts, you standardize configurations and maintain a secure and stable IT infrastructure, minimizing the risks associated with unauthorized modifications.

Linux – Schedule System Reboots

The Linux - Reboot System Worklet automation script facilitates remote reboots of Linux endpoints, essential for applying software updates, performing system changes, and troubleshooting errors. Regularly scheduled reboots ensure that your systems remain stable and up-to-date with the latest configurations.

This Worklet is particularly beneficial for maintaining optimal system functionality. Planned reboots refresh system performance and apply necessary updates, crucial for sustaining security and efficiency. By integrating this Worklet into your IT operations, you enhance the reliability and performance of your Linux endpoints.

Windows – Set Delivery Optimization

The Set Delivery Optimization Worklet for Windows offers a smart solution to manage and optimize update delivery settings by having all. This Worklet enables the sharing of downloaded updates, enhancing network performance especially for areas with limited bandwidth. 

By optimizing delivery settings, this Worklet enables updates and apps to be delivered efficiently, saving bandwidth and helping to create a reliable update process.
