Within Ivanti Endpoint Security, you can organize endpoints into groups, which are collections of endpoints. Organizing endpoints into a group lets you manage them as a single object.

About Groups

A group is a collection of endpoints that you can manage collectively. Within Ivanti Endpoint Security you can create custom groups to administer all endpoints as a single object.

Groups are organized into a tree hierarchy in which groups are nested; groups can contain other groups. This structure allows for inheritance of group members and policies, helping to minimize endpoint maintenance.

• For more information about the controls used to managed groups, see The Groups Page Browser.
