Disclosed are various implementations for distributing and installing packages in response to user logon events. A logon event associated with a user account is detected for a client device. A query containing a respective user account identifier is sent to a provisioning service to retrieve a set of packages to install on the client device. The set of packages are received from the provisioning service and installed on the client device.

Various examples for managing a client device having multiple enrolled user accounts thereon are described. A computing device is directed to store a mapping of a client device to a plurality of user accounts active. The computing device communicates remotely with a management application on the client device to identify an active one of the user accounts from an operating system of the client device. In response to receipt of information associated with a first one of the user accounts active on the client device, the computing device enrolls the first one of the user accounts with a management service in association with the client device. In response to receipt of information associated with a second one of the user accounts active on the client device, the computing device enrolls the second one of the user accounts with the management service in association with the client device.

Systems and methods are included for causing a computing device to assemble and boot from a managed operating system. When the computing device is powered on, it can execute firmware that specifies a server to contact. The server can identify an operating system (OS) to boot, and the location of a pre-enrollment installer for assembling the OS image. The pre-enrollment installer can download base OS images in one or more pieces from multiple locations determined based on ownership information of the computing device. The multiple OS images can relate to enterprise management and company-specific applications and drivers. Once the pre-enrollment installer has combined the base OS images, the computing device reboots using the combined OS image.

Disclosed are various examples for downloading data objects by enforcing a threshold amount of allocated data. In one example, among others, an application downloads a first subset of the files from a remote file management system. A user interface displays file system entries that represent the first subset of downloaded files and a second subset of undownloaded files from the remote file management system. The application detects an event for a respective file system entry associated with a respective file from the second subset of undownloaded files. The respective file is downloaded from the remote management system.

Disclosed are various approaches to automate vulnerability assessment implement policy-based mitigation. A plurality of vulnerability records from respective ones of a plurality of vulnerability feeds are aggregated. Each of the plurality of vulnerability records are stored in a standardized format. A plurality of enterprise-specific severity scores are generated by calculating an enterprise-specific severity score for each of the plurality of vulnerability records. Then, a web page can be created that includes at least a subset of the plurality of enterprise-specific severity scores and respective ones of the plurality of vulnerability records.

Various examples for performing automated enrollments of client devices with a management service after being accessed by a staging user account are described. A client device can be configured to identify a user account active on the client device and determine whether the user account is a staging user account or an end user account associated with an intended recipient of the client device. In an instance in which the user account is the staging user account, the client device can create an event listener on the client device that monitors a subsequent login of a user account performed through an operating system of the client device, the subsequent login of the user account being the end user account. In an instance in which the subsequent login of the user account is detected by the event listener, the client device can perform an automated enrollment with a remote management service.

Systems and methods are included for causing a computing device to install a management agent prior to an operating system completing its first boot. A bootstrap loader is flashed into firmware, such as the BIOS, of a computing device. The bootstrap loader installs an enroller that identifies a management agent. This can include downloading the management agent from a management server. The enroller can find or contact the management server by contacting an address provided in a WINDOWS Platform Binary Table (WPBT). The management agent is installed prior to the user logging into the operating system to prevent circumvention of management policies.
