LANDesk Software, Inc. is a corporation that provides systems management, security management, and process management solutions to organizations. LANDesk is considered by many to be the first vendor to integrate systems and security management solutions, and today its software has been installed on tens of millions of nodes worldwide. Certainly, it is one of the oldest companies providing this type of product.^[1]

Originally founded in 1985 as LAN Systems, the company’s software product assets were acquired by Intel in 1991, forming Intel’s LANDesk division.^[2] In 2002, LANDesk Software became a standalone company with headquarters near Salt Lake City, Utah.^[3] The company's software is used worldwide.^[4] In 2006, Avocent purchased the company for $416 million. ^[5]

LANDesk software has been the subject of third party manuals, including "Intel LANDesk Management Suite v.6.4: Essentials" by Barbara S. Josephson. ISBN 189385406X
