Question for the group

We have a sales guy who uses a Windows machine which we locked down as you know how prone Windows can be to cyber attacks. They do a lot of presentations and most of the clients have their own Click Share systems which requires them to apparently install drivers and or an application on their computer before they can broadcast to the clients boardroom TV screen.What do admins do in this case for their sales staff? Is there some default set of drivers/applications that can be installed before hand?
