Patch Management

Windows patch management is the process of managing patches for Windows, from scanning for and detecting missing patches to downloading and deploying them. Using a patch management solution, the entire Windows patch management process can be automated, so you don't need to go around to every computer and manually check whether all missing patches were identified and applied. Many Windows patch management tools also generate reports for you to confirm whether Windows patches have been deployed properly.

Although the patch management process is neither exceedingly technical nor extremely complicated, it is still perceived as a complex issue that’s often left to the last minute or resolved with products that automate the task. Effective patch management is not about technology; it’s about having a formal process in place that can deploy patches to vulnerable systems quickly.
