Patch management is an essential solution companies and enterprise must have. Patch management does what the name implies which is patching and managing none-patched systems. Patch Management solution offers the following:
- Analyze the administered machine and determine if it needs security patches.
- Applies missing patches
- Configure any installed patches (some patches need special configuration)
- Test applied patches to make sure that the system:
- Still operational
- Installed the patches successfully
- Re-scans the system to insure that system is up to date and compliant to policies.
One of the major security problems found in companies are due to internal employees not patching their systems and not keeping their machines up to date. With patch management, company no longer depends on the employees to update and patch their own system.
