Using the SecurityCenter Management of computer groups For example, you might place all laptops used by traveling sales representatives into a single group called Sales Team. Then you can configure special security settings for those computers to provide greater protection against threats in unsecured networks such as airports and hotels. You can also track the number of detections on those computers through more frequent reports and adjust the security settings as needed. Tips for large accounts To more efficiently monitor large accounts and optimize SecurityCenter performance, we recommend that you organize your computers into groups of no more than 100 computers. This enables you to use the View filter to display reports and computer status by group, then drill down to see the individual computers within a group as needed. How can I manage groups? The Manage Groups page displays the groups in your organization. Access the page by clicking the Manage Groups button on the Computers page. If you have not created any groups or policies, only the Default Group is displayed. The Default Group Until you create additional groups, all computers are assigned to the Default Group when the Total Protection Service client software is installed. If you delete a group that contains computers, they are moved into the Default Group. You cannot change the name of the Default Group. After you create additional groups, you can assign computers to them during the installation process or move computers into them at a later time. Working with groups Use this task to view and configure groups for your account.
