A complete overview of everything Deskman 14 can do.
Security configuration for Windows workstations, made simple.

Custom Start Menu
Build a secure Start menu, with only a few applications and commands, for easy access.
Application Filter
Block unwanted applications and prevent unauthorized software installation.
Web Filter
Define an allowlist of domains and IP addresses, with wildcard support, and restrict all other web access.

Pause restrictions temporarily from the dashboard, locally or remotely, or by pressing a hotkey.
Configuration Sync
Automatically push configuration to all installations and use groups to manage different setups across your deployment.
Audit Logs
A full audit trail of everything that matter: blocked apps, filtered websites, user activity, configuration changes, and warnings.
Security Events
Monitor key security events: external drives connected or removed, and applications installed or uninstalled.
Backups and Presets
Schedule weekly data backups and store multiple configuration presets, ready to apply across different deployments.
Web-Based Access
Since Deskman runs as a web interface, it can be accessed from any desktop or mobile device on your local network. No additional software required.
