Automation of corporate hardware/software management using NixOS

Managing endpoint devices in modern organizations is increasingly challenging due to the growing diversity of hardware and software. Unified Endpoint Management (UEM) solutions provide tools for centralized administration, configuration, and security across all devices within a company. This bachelor thesis focuses on the design and implementation of a custom UEM system based on the NixOS operating system, leveraging its declarative approach to configuration management. The goal is to develop a tool that enables centralized device management, ensures consistent system configurations, and enhances security through controlled deployment of trusted applications. The outcome of the thesis is a functional prototype of a UEM solution, complemented by a web application for managing configurations of individual users and devices. The work demonstrates the potential of NixOS as a platform for endpoint management in Linux-based environments.
