Introducing Immutable Mode: The Next Evolution of Secure Endpoints

Today, we’re taking endpoint security to the next level. At IGEL, our mission has always been to give organizations secure, manageable, and future-proof digital workspaces. With the IGEL Managed Hypervisor™, we’ve already redefined what’s possible at the edge enabling IT teams to run multiple virtual machines on IGEL OS devices seamlessly.

IGEL Managed Hypervisor is built on IGEL’s secure endpoint operating system and the IGEL Preventative Security Model™. Unlike traditional endpoint virtualization solutions, IMH includes centralized management capabilities to offer a robust and secure endpoint virtualization platform.
Now, we’re adding a new layer of innovation to enable generic immutability support.

What Is Immutable Mode?
Generic immutability support is a breakthrough capability that allows any operating system such as Windows 11 to run in a completely non-persistent environment inside IGEL Managed Hypervisor.

In this mode, the virtual machine’s image becomes immutable, so it cannot be permanently changed. Every time the device reboots, the system starts fresh.
Any change, any malware, any ransomware attempt is wiped away instantly on restart.

The outcome is simplicity, security, and resilience
A fully functional, fully compatible Windows environment that behaves just like native Windows but with the security, simplicity, and resilience of IGEL OS enabling:

Security Without Compromise
Immutable Mode ensures that even if an attack occurs, there’s nothing to clean up. Every reboot restores a trusted, verified image, protecting both data and users at the edge.

Simplified Management
Eliminate the complexity of patching or reimaging compromised endpoints. IT teams can deploy updates centrally and know that every reboot returns devices to a known-good state.

Confidence at Scale
Immutable Mode gives enterprises the without the risk, without the noise, and without the cleanup.

The Future of Secure, Flexible Endpoints
With the introduction of Immutable Mode in IGEL Managed Hypervisor, IGEL extends its leadership in endpoint security and manageability. It bridges the gap between the flexibility of running Windows and the immutable, read-only protection of IGEL OS.

In a world where cyber threats evolve daily, immutability is the ultimate defense — simplicity and security in perfect harmony.
