TSFA Agent Versioning on Organization Level

TSFA Agent Versioning on Organization Level

Version Control ensures that all devices within the organization adhere to a universal standard defined by the organization or IT administrators. This feature allows administrators to manage the ThinkShield Firmware Assurance (TSFA) agent version across all devices, facilitating updates with newer or older versions as needed.

The selected version is integrated into the provisioning package for new devices, and all existing devices within the organization are updated accordingly. This enables organizations to efficiently utilize the most suitable versions from the array of supported TSFA Agent versions.
Ensure that the Sync with Global Organization Settings toggle is enabled for devices before using this function.

User Roles

TSFA Versioning is available for Org Admin and IT Admin; any TSFA Org or IT admin can perform version updates.
