Automated AVG Unprotected Device Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens the AVG Business dashboard, checks every device for protection turned off or definitions badly out of date, saves the current device status list to Google Drive, and posts a Slack alert naming any device that needs attention.

In short

How do I get alerted right away if a device's AVG protection turns off?

WebRun checks every device on your AVG Business dashboard each morning for protection turned off or definitions more than a week out of date, saves the status list to Google Drive, and posts a Slack alert naming any device that needs attention. It never re-enables protection itself, only detects and reports it.

  • Unprotected devices get flagged the same morning, not weeks later
  • Device status is archived daily so gaps in coverage are easy to trace
  • Fully protected days produce zero Slack noise

Built for IT admins · managed service providers · small business owners · security teams

Questions, answered

Does WebRun turn protection back on itself?

No. WebRun only detects and alerts. Turning protection back on or updating definitions is a step your IT team takes on the device.

Will I get an alert for a routine update in progress?

No. It only alerts on protection that's off or definitions more than a week out of date, not normal update activity.

What happens on a day every device is protected?

Nothing posts to Slack. The device status list is still archived to Google Drive every day either way.

Put this on autopilot.
