Since states began instituting stay-at-home orders and businesses transitioned to a remote workforce, IT professionals have seen their workloads skyrocket.

It's another week with some encouraging signs of economic recovery on one hand, but troubling spikes of new COVID-19 cases on the other. We hope things are okay where you are, that business is good, but — more importantly — that you and your loved ones are safe and healthy.

If you're in that boat, or hopefully steering in that direction, we've got two upcoming events for you to check out. Read more

It also provides the capability to trigger automations based on those same script outputs.
One example of how to use this enhancement is to automatically manage BitLocker disk encryption from directly within NinjaRMM with the help of PowerShell. Read more
