IT Administrators and service providers know that when their network is at risk, the organisation is at risk. It is a daunting task to keep up with and apply security updates within the IT infrastructure. Especially if the networks span multiple locations, include multiple domains, traverse multiple firewalls, and include remote and home users.
Patch management is also not just scanning and applying patches. Often times patches need to be deployed in a test environment, undergo an approval process or require multiple steps to deploy. For example, a SQL server patch. pic provides the tools and infrastructure to enforce policies and to easily address the complexities of security patch deployment.
