This Week’s Focus: Windows 11 Readiness & Enhanced Essential 8 Reporting

Windows 11 Readiness Report: Now Available to All

After an extended beta phase, the Windows 11 Readiness Report is officially live for all customers—making it easier than ever to plan your organization’s Windows 11 migration.

Key Benefits

  • Device Landscape at a Glance: Quickly see which devices are on Windows 10 or Windows 11, plus any that require an upgrade or replacement.
  • Compatibility Checks: Pinpoint potential blockers—like insufficient RAM or outdated CPU—so you can proactively address them before Windows 10 reaches end-of-life.
  • Actionable Insights: Confidently map out upgrade projects and avoid surprises during migration.

Coming Soon

  • Demo Data: Demo environments will soon include mock data for the Windows 11 Readiness Report—ideal for training or evaluation purposes.
  • Interactive Bar Graph: In a future update, clicking any bar in the overview chart will filter the detailed device list below—making it even easier to isolate problem areas.

Essential 8 Report Enhancements

We’ve introduced updates to better showcase E8 compliance—a top request from design partners, who use these insights to win tenders and demonstrate security best practices.

What’s New

  • ACSC ID & ISM Control Numbers in CSV: Exporting your report now includes these references for improved clarity. Show exactly how you align with Australian Cyber Security Centre guidelines and the Information Security Manual.
  • “Regular Backups” Strategy: We’ve added this category to give you a more complete view of E8 compliance, even though backups typically fall outside Devicie’s direct scope.

Why It Matters

  • Stronger Security Posture: Clear alignment with official frameworks can help assure customers, partners, and regulators that your environment meets best-practice standards.
  • Enhanced Reporting: Provide deeper detail on each control—helpful when justifying budgets or responding to audits.
