The heuristic data describes a plurality of health considerations that include reliability, performance and security of the plurality of client devices.

A remedy is generated corresponding to an issue identified from the heuristic data regarding at least one of the health considerations that cures the issue and addresses one or more other health considerations indicated in the heuristic data.
