New capabilities help IT teams bring endpoints under management faster, respond to emerging threats, and continuously maintain secure configurations

HOUSTON, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Action1, a leading provider of autonomous endpoint management (AEM) solutions, today announced two new endpoint management modules: Endpoint Configuration Management and Endpoint Enrollment and Provisioning. The separately licensed modules extend Action1’s endpoint management capabilities, helping organizations rapidly bring Windows endpoints under management and continuously maintain them in line with approved security configurations.

As AI accelerates the discovery and exploitation of vulnerabilities, the time available for IT teams to respond is shrinking. Action1 Endpoint Enrollment and Provisioning is built to help reduce that gap by allowing organizations to quickly enroll selected Windows endpoints through Microsoft Intune and immediately apply the software, vulnerability remediation, and configuration policies required to bring them into a managed state.

Once an endpoint is enrolled, the provisioning feature runs assigned automations to deploy software, patch vulnerabilities, and apply configuration policies, while allowing IT teams to monitor the results – all from a single console. This helps organizations shorten the path from discovering exposure to taking remediation action across affected endpoints.

Action1 Endpoint Configuration Management addresses another persistent endpoint security challenge: configuration drift. Organizations can define configuration policies using established security frameworks and benchmarks, including Microsoft Security Baselines, CIS, DISA STIGs, NIST, and others, or select individual security controls based on their requirements.

Policies can be assigned to endpoint groups in either assessment-only or assessment-and-remediation mode. Action1 automations assess endpoints for configuration drift, remediate settings that have moved outside the approved baseline, and report the resulting compliance status.

“Endpoint security increasingly comes down to speed and consistency,” said Mike Walters, President and Co-founder of Action1. “When new threats emerge, organizations need to bring endpoints under management quickly but also ensure they remain securely configured afterward. Action1’s Enrollment and Provisioning and Configuration Management address both sides of that challenge: accelerating the path to a secure, managed state and continuously keeping them there.”

Together, the new modules broaden Action1’s endpoint management capabilities around three critical security outcomes: rapidly establishing management coverage across endpoints, reducing the window between exposure and remediation, and preventing configuration drift from creating new security gaps.

The new Endpoint Enrollment and Provisioning module enables organizations to:

Enroll selected Windows endpoints into Action1 through Microsoft IntuneAutomatically deploy the Action1 Agent during enrollmentAssign provisioning automations to newly enrolled endpointsDeploy required softwareRemediate vulnerabilitiesApply configuration policiesMonitor provisioning results in Action1

The new Endpoint Configuration Management module enables organizations to:

Create and maintain secure Windows endpoint configuration policiesBuild policies from established security baselines or individual controlsApply policies to selected endpoint groupsAssess endpoints for configuration driftAutomatically remediate configuration deviationsMonitor and report configuration compliance

Both Endpoint Enrollment and Provisioning and Endpoint Configuration Management are available as separately licensed modules and are not included in the standard Action1 platform license.

AmLaw 20 firm’s four-year collaboration with Thomson Reuters culminates in the rollout of agentic AI built to work through the stages of a legal matter

NEW YORK, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP has deployed the next generation of CoCounsel Legal, Thomson Reuters’ agentic artificial intelligence (AI) for legal professionals. The rollout gives lawyers across the firm’s global offices access to AI that can plan, research, and draft across a matter.

The deployment builds on four years of collaboration in which Greenberg Traurig attorneys received early access to CoCounsel Legal, participated in beta testing, and helped shape product development and integrations.

“What distinguishes Greenberg Traurig is not technology alone, but the talented professionals who use it to help solve complex challenges for our clients. We have historically embraced innovation where it can create meaningful value, and the deployment of CoCounsel Legal reflects that philosophy. By combining this technology with the experience and judgment of our lawyers, we are enhancing our ability to deliver efficient, forward-looking, and client-centered legal services,” Greenberg Traurig Chief Executive Officer Brian L. Duffy said.

Built for how legal work actually gets done

The next generation of CoCounsel Legal plans an approach, retrieves authoritative content, reasons through the issues, and drafts with citations, adapting mid-workflow as new facts emerge. Every output is grounded in Westlaw and Practical Law content, guided by 35 million West Key Number classifications and 3.9 million Precision Research attributes, with reasoning and citations attorneys can inspect rather than simply accept. Brief Builder extends this further, turning that grounded research and reasoning directly into a structured, court-ready draft brief.

“Our longstanding work with Thomson Reuters and our involvement in CoCounsel’s development gave us a clear understanding of the platform’s capabilities,” Greenberg Traurig Chief Pricing and Innovation Officer Matthew N. Beekhuizen said. “Its integration with DeepJudge, Westlaw, and Practical Law will help our lawyers access firm and legal knowledge more effectively while maintaining the quality and professional judgment our clients expect.”

“The legal industry is moving beyond AI that simply generates answers, and Greenberg Traurig’s deployment shows what that shift looks like in practice,” Thomson Reuters President, Legal Professionals Raghu Ramanathan said. “The next generation of CoCounsel Legal helps its lawyers turn insight into action by combining trusted legal content, agentic intelligence, and workflow execution in a single experience, grounded in the transparency and accountability of our Fiduciary-Grade AI™ standard. That’s a fundamentally different approach to legal AI, and Greenberg Traurig is helping lead the profession in putting it to work.”

Innovation with guardrails

Innovation is part of Greenberg Traurig’s DNA and core values. The firm has long been an early adopter of transformative technology, and its approach to AI is no different: actively shaping the tools its lawyers use rather than simply adopting them. Clients are made aware that lawyers use AI on their matters, and AI-generated work products are reviewed by lawyers handling the matter and by supervising shareholders before they reach a client.

Greenberg Traurig maintains a governance framework centered on the responsible use of AI. The firm’s commitment to responsible AI reflects a core tenet of firm culture, supported by rigorous information security and due diligence protocols that are applied to each AI tool deployed. These protocols are specifically designed to help ensure that AI models utilized by the firm do not train on client data, and that data rights and confidentiality obligations are respected at every stage. Greenberg Traurig is committed to bringing the efficiencies and advantages the best AI tools have to offer to its clients without compromising the protection of the data entrusted to it.
