What is Microsoft SCCM?

SCCM or System Center Configuration Manager is a software management suite provided by Microsoft which enables the deployment and security of devices and applications across an enterprise.

It lets administrative professionals help end users gain access to the devices and applications they need without compromising corporate security.

How does SCCM work?

At the highest level, SCCM is installed on a Windows Server to help organizations manage endpoints. Generally, it requires an agent on the managed endpoints to work.  Typically, devices outside the corporate network need to connect back via VPN to receive patches, configuration updates, software, and more (unless the organization has also set up cloud management gateway (CMG) servers to help reduce VPN dependence with SCCM).

What is MSIX?
