Reduce Endpoint Energy Costs by Up to 76% with Power Management

Endpoint power management is a centralized approach to controlling and optimizing the power consumption of computers (endpoints) across an organization. It allows IT administrators to:

• Deploy standardized power policies to thousands of devices simultaneously
• Schedule automatic shutdown and wake-up times
• Configure different settings for AC power vs battery operation on laptops
• Monitor energy usage and generate savings reports
• Control display brightness, sleep timers, processor states, and hard disk settings

This eliminates the need to manually configure power settings on each individual computer, ensuring consistent energy savings across your entire fleet.

Yes, absolutely. Zecurit Power Management provides granular control for different device types:

• Separate AC and Battery policies: Configure different settings when laptops are plugged in vs running on battery
• Device type targeting: Apply specific policies to laptops, desktops, or workstations
• Battery-specific controls: Set critical, low, and reserve battery levels with customizable actions (hibernate, shutdown, or notifications)
• Lid close and power button actions: Define what happens when users close laptop lids or press power buttons

For example, you might configure desktops to shutdown aggressively after hours, while laptops on battery use more conservative settings to prevent unexpected shutdowns during mobile work.

Not when configured properly. Zecurit Power Management is designed to save energy without compromising performance:

• Intelligent scheduling: Shutdowns only occur during idle periods or after user notification
• User presence detection: Skip shutdown if users are actively logged in
• Processor state control: Balance performance needs with energy savings (e.g., IT department gets "High Performance" while others use "Balanced")
• Customizable notifications: Users receive advance warning before scheduled shutdowns and can postpone if needed
• Department-specific policies: Apply aggressive power saving only where appropriate

Many organizations actually report improved user experience because endpoints boot fresh each morning rather than accumulating memory leaks and slowdowns from running 24/7.

Zecurit Power Management currently supports:

• Operating Systems: Windows 10 and Windows 11 (all editions including Pro, Enterprise, and Education)
• Device Types: Desktops, laptops, and workstations
• Deployment: Both domain-joined and non-domain devices
• Hardware: Any x86/x64 compatible systems with modern ACPI power management support

Note: Advanced battery management features require laptops with battery telemetry support. Wake-on-LAN requires network cards with WoL capability enabled in BIOS.

We use EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) standard conversion factors:

• 0.92 lbs of CO₂ per kWh of electricity consumed (US national average)
• 0.417 kg of CO₂ per kWh in metric units

Example: If you save 1,000 kWh per year through power management, you've reduced CO₂ emissions by approximately 417 kg—equivalent to:

• Driving 1,035 miles in an average car
• 47 gallons of gasoline not consumed
• 0.5 tons of waste recycled instead of landfilled

These metrics help organizations meet ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) reporting requirements and sustainability goals.

No additional software required. Power Management is integrated directly into Zecurit Endpoint Manager:

• Single agent: The same lightweight agent used for patch management, software deployment, and asset tracking also handles power management
• Unified console: Manage everything from one dashboard—no switching between tools
• Shared infrastructure: Leverages existing reporting, role-based access, and audit logging
• No additional cost overhead: Part of the comprehensive endpoint management suite

This unified approach reduces complexity, eliminates vendor sprawl, and provides better value than purchasing standalone power management tools.
