Automated PC Audits via Scheduled Task using EZ Audit®


IMPORTANT:
You need to have a Domain to do automated audits be it on prem or cloud. PCs need to be joined and have access to shared folders on a server. "Workgroup" or Samba/SMB won't work.

All you need to do in the task is have it launch is pass the command below. That location must have a configuration file for the audit, by default "config.ezc".

Read about configuration files here.

 \\servername\ezaudit\ezstart-a -o

The "-o" is only needed if you want to make the PCs available for On-Demand audits (PDF) in addition to scheduled audits.

If you have Azure AD or Azure AD Domain Services/Azure AD DS:

It's as simple as creating a shared folder on the domain, and triggering an app at user logon via Group Policy, which can be handled via Intune.

Here is the Microsoft documentation for creating shares using AD DS
