Patch Management
Every operating system and application patched automatically — before known vulnerabilities can be exploited.
Overview
Close the window attackers count on.
The vast majority of breaches exploit vulnerabilities that already had a patch available. The problem is never the patch — it's making sure it actually gets applied everywhere, on schedule, without breaking anything.
We automate patching across operating systems and the third-party apps attackers love to target, run it inside maintenance windows that respect your workday, and give you reporting that proves it happened.

Common Questions
Questions we get asked
Which updates are included: just Windows, or our other software too?
Operating system updates for Windows, macOS, and Linux; the third-party applications attackers target most, such as Chrome, Adobe, Java, and Zoom; and firmware and driver updates at the device level. Line-of-business software with its own vendor update process is handled case by case. We tell you up front which of your applications we can patch automatically and which need a different arrangement, so nothing is assumed.
Will patching reboot our computers in the middle of the workday?
No. Patches are deployed inside maintenance windows set outside your working hours, and larger updates go out in stages so a problem shows up on a few machines rather than all of them. Approval workflows let us hold a patch back if it is known to cause trouble. Your staff sit down to a machine that is already current, not a restart prompt in the middle of a task.
Can you prove to our insurer or auditor that patches were applied?
Yes. Every patch run is documented, and the compliance reporting shows the patch percentage across your fleet and lists any missing patches by device. That is the evidence a cyber insurance questionnaire or an audit generally asks for, and we can produce it on request rather than reconstructing it after the fact. We help you meet the requirement; the report is yours to hand over.
What happens if a patch breaks something?
It happens, which is why rollouts are staged and approved rather than pushed to everyone at once. If an update causes a problem, we pause it for the rest of the fleet, roll back or repair the affected machines, and reschedule once a fix is available. Because patching runs on the same platform as monitoring and remote support, the people who deployed the patch are the same people fixing it.
