The Ivanti Endpoint Security Components

Ivanti Endpoint Security consists of components. These components include platform components and module components, and both work together to make Ivanti Endpoint Security operational.

Platform Components form the basis for Ivanti Endpoint Security module components to operate. The Ivanti Endpoint Security components include:

• The Ivanti Endpoint Security Web Console. The console is used to control Ivanti Endpoint Security.
• The Ivanti Endpoint Security Database. The database stores Ivanti Endpoint Security values.
• The Ivanti Installation Manager. Installation Manager is used to install module components.
• Any modules that are listed as platform components within the Installation Manager.

All Ivanti Endpoint Security platform components are included in the Ivanti Endpoint Security install.

Module Components are the individual security solutions used to prevent various types of security breaches within your network. Each module plugs in to the Ivanti Endpoint Security platform and can be purchased individually.

Each module stops security threats using a different approach. For example, Ivanti Patch and Remediation stops security threats by applying vendor-created software patches.

You can install, upgrade, or uninstall any module you are licensed for with the Installation Manager. You can manage modules regardless of purchase time. For example, you may initially purchase only the Patch and Remediation module, but later add the Application Control module.
