HTTPS

Outbound-only cloud communication

Per device

Independent protected identity

Policy led

Optional collection and automation

Two components. One trusted boundary.

Deep visibility without handing desktop users privileged access.

The Agent performs trusted machine-level work. The Companion supplies the human touchpoint. They communicate locally; only the Agent holds the endpoint identity used with Ordantra.

01

Ordantra Agent

A resilient background service that turns endpoint state into current, structured asset and risk intelligence.

Asset intelligence

Hardware, operating system, installed software, users and device identity.

Security posture

Encryption, firewall, secure boot, TPM and security-product signals.

Reliable check-in

Signed, sequenced heartbeats report endpoint health and inventory every 15 minutes.

Risk automation

Policy matches can surface endpoint risk and create actionable service work.

Managed updates

Platform-specific releases, verified payloads, outcome reporting and rollback safeguards.

02

Ordantra Companion

A windowless, per-user Windows tray application designed for clarity and controlled interaction.

Visible status

A lightweight Windows tray experience shows connection and Agent version.

User actions

Check now and approved update actions without exposing privileged credentials.

Secure prompts

Ownership and compliance interactions cross an authenticated local service boundary.

Optional usage insight

Foreground-application summaries are collected only when a workspace enables the feature.

Interactive product tour

From rollout to risk to the user experience.

Explore the endpoint workflow that connects the Agent, Companion and Ordantra service operations.

Security by design

Built to protect fleet identity and minimise credential exposure.

Enrolment exchanges a workspace key for a unique device credential. The raw enrolment credential is not retained, and the Windows Agent protects its derived signing key with machine-scoped DPAPI.

  • Authenticated heartbeatsHMAC signatures and monotonic sequences protect device messages.
  • Least-exposed CompanionNo Ordantra cloud credential is stored in the tray process.
  • ACL-protected IPCLocal communication is bounded to the trusted Agent service.
  • Controlled updatesSigned commands, SHA-256 verification and platform isolation.
  • Tenant isolationEndpoint data remains scoped to its enrolled workspace.
Privacy and control

Useful telemetry, with deliberate boundaries.

Collected by default

Device identity, operating system, hardware, installed software, service health and selected security-posture signals.

Workspace controlled

Application-usage summaries are disabled unless explicitly enabled during enrolment or by approved policy.

Not a surveillance tool

The Agent does not provide arbitrary screen capture, keystroke recording, microphone access or unrestricted remote control.

Deployment profile
