Zero Touch Deployment, hand in hand with Zero Touch Provisioning, streamlines IT setup for employees<\/a>, allowing companies to ship devices directly to remote workers with the ability to automatically provision programs and applications and configure the entire operating system without any IT interaction.<\/p>\n

As we have learned, working from home for non-physical, \u201coffice worker\u201d professions is not only possible but in some cases, preferable. Enterprise corporations, medium and small businesses have begun to settle and even thrive in the work-from-home landscape, some continuing remotely on a full-time basis and others sliding into a more flexible, hybrid environment.<\/p>\n

Before ZeroTouch Enrollment<\/h2>\n

Before \u201cZero Touch\u201c became a buzzword that organizations were truly interested in, IT departments went about provisioning devices either directly from the manufacturer, or with the help of a value added reseller.<\/p>\n

Either way, the devices were normally sent to a central point within an organization, directly into the hands of IT, so they could configure the devices before they were assigned to employees.<\/p>\n

Device Imaging<\/h3>\n

Most computers you buy at the store come with a default image, for instance if Windows 11 is already installed on a newly purchased computer, that operating system is the standard image.<\/p>\n

However, further business-specific configurations meant IT personnel had to physically touch the devices in order to add the unique drivers, files, software, databases, and applications a company needed.<\/p>\n

This manual intervention amounts to the creation of a company-specific (sometimes even as detailed as role-specific) \u201cimage file\u201d that could be duplicated on computers across an organization.<\/p>\n

After the computers were imaged, they could be distributed, or even shipped to remote employees as needed.<\/p>\n

The Zero Touch World of IT Explained<\/h3>\n

The reason that Zero Touch Deployment and Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) is becoming so popular is that as the number of devices used within organizations increases and workers are spread outside of the office, so does the strain on IT Departments. ZTP can help streamline and, in some cases, outsource the more arduous and repetitive tasks.<\/p>\n

What is ZeroTouch Provisioning<\/h2>\n

Zero Touch Provisioning and Zero Touch Deployment are terms that are often used interchangeably. Regardless of terminology, they are referring to the \u201chands-off\u201d automatic installation of company-specific computer files, programs, and settings.<\/p>\n

ZTP processes may vary between organizations, but in general, they include these steps:<\/p>\n
