LANDesk® Patch Manager lets you automate vulnerability assessment and patch management across your organization's heterogeneous IT environment. It helps you establish and maintain baseline security, stability and performance for your applications and operating systems through:
Scanning
With LANDesk® Patch Manager you can actively scan your managed computers against industry-standard information sources to identify application and operating system vulnerabilities. Quickly identify and download the patch associated with each vulnerability. And with a single click you can research requirements, dependencies, interactions and known issues for each patch.
Remediation
LANDesk® Patch Manager lets you select targets and choose a remediation method directly from the list of detected vulnerabilities. You can use autofix remediation or your own established policies and always move from problem to solution more quickly. Schedule distribution tasks to apply patches to individual computers or groups of computers by integrating with your existing directory, such as Windows Active Directory. And use exclusive LANDesk® software distribution technologies to deploy patches more quickly and efficiently.
Analysis, Reporting and Alerting
LANDesk® Patch Manager lets you set up email or pager alerts when a vulnerability or a specific severity level is detected. It also monitors the status of each install and displays the status on screen, so you can track remediation and ensure that each patch attained its target. When remediation is complete, easily audit each target machine to ensure correct configuration and report successful remediation.
The LANDesk® patch management software solution helps your enterprise establish and maintain baseline patch security, stability and performance for your applications and operating systems. You can establish policies that automatically install specific patches for specific operating systems, plus you can download and install new patch deployments automatically as they become available with autofix remediation.
Using LANDesk Patch Manager you can access exclusive LANDesk® Targeted Multicast™ technology that minimizes the bandwidth used when distributing large packages to multiple users, without requiring dedicated hardware or router reconfigurations. You can also tap LANDesk® Peer Download™ technology that leverages local bandwidth efficiency to access packages that were already delivered to a subnet. The LANDesk patch management solution lets you use these technologies to pre-stage patches to each local system cache and then quickly perform patch installation once approved by your change control board. You're able to carry out patch security on vulnerable systems and maintain patch management security policies across your network more quickly and efficiently.
