from the screen shot,  it looks like the IPS signature are old, hence failure.

Since there are 6 systems and 1 system is running out of date, hence ratio is 1:6 i.e. 17 % ( which is above the set paramater , 10%). Hence failure information.

You may need to update the client IPS signature.

You should check when the client last check in with the SEPM.  From the SEPM console, click on Client and then select the group that the machine belongs to and then select Client Status from the drop-down box on top.  It could be that the user is on leave or the machine is a spare one and it is not switched on.  It could also be that there is some communication problem between the client and the manager.
