What happens when new computers are added with continuous deployment?

When new computers are added in an environment with continuous deployment, they typically receive automatic configuration and software deployments, which is a cornerstone of the continuous deployment process. This ensures that any new machines will be provisioned with the necessary security measures and software without requiring manual intervention. In this case, ThreatLocker, known for its application whitelisting and zero-trust security approach, would be deployed automatically to maintain a consistent security posture across all devices within the network. Automated deployments help streamline the process and ensure that new computers meet the organization's security and operational standards right from the start.

Other responses hint at procedures that may occur in different deployment contexts. For example, manual software installation and requiring configuration settings may be necessary in more traditional or less automated environments. Marking installations as incomplete could occur if there are failed deployments, indicating an issue rather than a feature of continuous deployment. However, in a well-configured continuous deployment setup, ensuring that new machines automatically receive the necessary software, like ThreatLocker, aligns with the goals of rapid, reliable, and secure deployments.
