Endpoint trust · No MDM
Auditors want encryption, patching, and baseline controls on dev, BYOD, and contractor laptops — not proof that IT enrolled every device. EDAMAME Security scores posture on each machine. EDAMAME Hub inventories the fleet and exports evidence for SOC 2 and ISO 27001 — reporting-only, no remote wipe console.
The trap
MDM was built to control devices — not to prove trust
MDM means tenant setup, enrollment profiles, compliance policies, and remote-wipe rules — before any laptop shows up in your console. That breaks down on BYOD, contractor laptops, and dev machines where you cannot strip admin rights or push OS configuration from the admin console.
You still need continuous proof: which machines meet your posture bar, which are missing from the fleet, what changed since last week. EDAMAME scores posture on each host and rolls fleet evidence into Hub — for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and security reviews — without standing up enrollment infrastructure.
How it works
How does host inventory become a fleet view?
Step 1 · Deploy
Deploy on the machines that matter
EDAMAME Security on developer, BYOD, and contractor laptops. Posture checks and guided fixes the user approves — not IT pushing profiles or remote lockdown.
Step 2 · Inventory
Inventory the fleet in Hub
EDAMAME Hub shows which workstations and runners are in, which are missing, and live posture scores — without enrolling every endpoint in MDM first.
Step 3 · Export
Export evidence for audits
Posture history rolls up for SOC 2 and ISO 27001. Connect Vanta or gate GitHub, SSH, and VPN on posture when you are ready.
The old way vs EDAMAME's way
MDM was built for central IT control — enrollment, profiles, remote wipe. EDAMAME flips the model: workstations prove posture, users approve fixes on their own machine, and Hub rolls continuous evidence for audits. Same trust story, without standing up an MDM rollout.
What changes
MDM
EDAMAME
Dev velocity
Locks down dev machines — enrollment profiles, compliance policies, and remote lockdown slow shipping.
Guided fixes the user approves on their own machine — no IT pushing OS configuration or remote lockdown.
Audit evidence
Infrequent, manual audits — compliance exports cover enrolled devices; gaps wherever MDM was never deployed.
Continuous posture proof — SOC 2 and ISO 27001 history across the engineering fleet, including machines outside MDM scope.
Control model
Central IT control only — enroll, profile, and wipe from the admin console.
Users fix in-app when posture drops; platform admins set rules and read fleet evidence in Hub.
BYOD & adoption
Agent fatigue and privacy push-back — separate enrollment types, or exclude unmanaged devices from compliance.
Lightweight agent on corp, BYOD, and contractor laptops — zero remote control, no device ownership transfer.
