How to Create Profiler Reports for ePO V.4

E Policy Orchestrator, or ePO, is a security software manufactured by leading network security experts McAfee, Inc. McAfee's ePO version 4 allows a network administrator to define a network-wide security profile and run reports of all systems on the network to ensure compliance with the organization’s security profile. For example, a security profile report may be constructed to query which PCs on the network are running all current operating system security patches. Profiler reports are constructed by setting up queries to run at specified intervals across the entire network.
