Are You Dealing With Patch Management Challenges?
“71% of IT and cybersecurity professionals say patching is too complex and time-consuming,” according to Expert Insights.
Many IT professionals are struggling with patch management. Are you one of them?
- Manual Processes: Keeping track of patches manually is a nightmare. Every week there’s a new patch that you have to manually inventory across dozens of systems, which will consume hours of your staff’s time.
- Downtime Risks: A new patch without proper testing can break your systems. Waiting will compromise security.
- Compliance Pressure: If your business is on the hook for HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and other compliance requirements, the state requires you to provide proof of patching. If you’re missing compliance reporting, a compliance audit can be a nightmare.
- Visibility: Struggling to manage remote devices or virtual servers? Our patch management tool will find every system, no matter where it’s physically located.
- Staff overload: There’s no doubt about it. Patching consumes a significant amount of time. If your IT team is already stretched thin, patching routinely falls low on their priority list.
Ascendant’s Patch Management Solutions
When you choose Ascendant as your patch management service provider, we deliver:
Automated Patch Flagging
Our patch management software delivers current patch status around the clock, giving Ascendant’s technical team real-time insights into potential vulnerabilities. Our software allows us to view all IT equipment, whether it’s on your corporate network or completely remote. We can automate patching during your scheduled maintenance window to remove downtime from the equation.
Patch Testing
Before we roll out any new security patches onto your corporate systems, we will test the updates in a sandbox environment to make sure there aren’t any hidden problems before going live in production. This allows us to spot compatibility issues with the operating systems before they impact your business. As an additional layer of safety, our built-in rollback procedure can always restore your systems to a previous patch status.
