Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide for group policy object (GPO) update compliance. A method for GPO update compliance includes selecting both a compliance update and also a computing system as an endpoint targeted for receiving the compliance update, directing execution of a remediation process that applies the compliance update onto the selected endpoint and performing a re-scan of the selected endpoint subsequent to the execution of the remediation process. The method further includes executing a GPO update within a threshold period of time after the re-scan and repeating the re-scan after the GPO update and then comparing a log produced by the repeated re-scan after the GPO update with a log produced by the re-scan before the GPO update, detecting an out-of-compliance update in the comparison and responding to the out-of-compliance update by directing a repair of the out-of-compliance update using a domain login for the selected endpoint.
