A Single Console for Your Entire Fleet

Deploy policies, monitor devices, and enforce compliance across every managed endpoint from one secure web console.

Protection That Never Goes Offline

CtrlOne enforces locked-down policies even when devices lose connectivity, with configurable offline fail-closed windows.

How CtrlOne Enforces Every Policy

CtrlOne is policy-first by design. Restrictions are applied through native Windows mechanisms - never by tampering with your applications - so enforcement stays predictable, reversible, and safe for Windows updates.

  • Native policy, not file tampering - every restriction is applied through Windows Group Policy and registry policy, then service control. The agent never renames executables, deletes application files, changes install paths, or patches binaries.
  • Fail-closed when offline - each policy carries a configurable offline window from 0 to 365 days, so locked-down policies stay enforced even when a device cannot reach the console.
  • Tamper-resistant by construction - protected registry values are signed with HMAC-SHA256, and a companion watchdog service restarts the agent if it is stopped or removed.
  • Verified, machine-bound channel - the agent pins the server certificate with TLS 1.3 and SPKI pinning and binds its license to the machine, so policies can only originate from your console.

Audit Evidence, Not Assertions

Every policy change is version-snapshotted, and the activity log is a tamper-evident hash chain. When an auditor asks, administrators export a single evidence pack - a ZIP that bundles the audit log, active policies, policy-version history, per-device posture, a framework README for HIPAA, SOC 2, or ISO 27001, and a SHA-256 manifest so the contents can be verified independently.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is CtrlOne?

CtrlOne is a Windows endpoint policy management solution designed to help organizations centrally manage restrictions, configurations, and endpoint controls.

How does CtrlOne work?

CtrlOne installs a lightweight, tamper-resistant agent on each Windows PC. Administrators define policies in a central web console, and the agent enforces those restrictions and configurations on every managed device.

Can CtrlOne block USB devices?

Yes. CtrlOne can control USB storage and other device classes, letting you allow or deny specific device types instead of disabling USB entirely.

Can CtrlOne block applications?

Yes. CtrlOne can restrict or block specific applications from launching, and can apply per-application time budgets where needed.

Does CtrlOne support Windows 11?

Yes. CtrlOne supports Microsoft Windows environments, including Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Can CtrlOne replace Group Policy?

For many lockdown scenarios, yes. CtrlOne enforces restrictions through Windows policy and registry controls from a single console, so teams can manage endpoints without building and maintaining Group Policy objects.

Does CtrlOne work offline?

Yes. CtrlOne keeps policies enforced even when a device loses connectivity, with configurable offline fail-closed windows.

Is CtrlOne suitable for schools?

Yes. CtrlOne is ideal for schools, colleges, training centers, libraries, and computer laboratories.

How many PCs can CtrlOne manage?

CtrlOne is built to scale from a handful of PCs to 10,000+ devices per tenant. There is no on-prem infrastructure to provision, so you can grow from a single site to a large fleet without re-architecting.

Can policies be managed centrally?

Yes. Administrators can configure and deploy policies through a centralized management console.

Can policies survive a reboot?

Yes. Policies are enforced through Windows Group Policy and registry controls backed by a service-mode agent and a companion-service watchdog, so restrictions persist across reboots and re-arm automatically at startup.

Can users bypass restrictions?

Restrictions are enforced at the Windows policy and registry level and run under a protected system service, so standard users cannot simply turn them off. Tamper-resistance and offline fail-closed enforcement keep policies in place even without a connection.

Can the agent be tampered with?

The agent is hardened against tampering with registry tamper-resistance, signed HKLM policy values, and a companion-service watchdog that restarts it. If it is taken offline, offline fail-closed enforcement keeps your policies applied.

How are updates deployed?

Agents update themselves silently in the background from the cloud, with no manual reinstall required. Administrators manage the rollout centrally from the console.

How is licensing calculated?

Licensing is per managed device (seat). Each plan includes a device cap, and free trials are available so you can evaluate CtrlOne before committing.
