IT organizations lack standard processes and procedures that enable them to manage an efficient and economical patch management program.  SMBs are even less likely to be able to keep their systems up-to-date.  This is due to the increased risk that the Internet, e-business and interconnection has brought to network computing. Widespread, unceasing hacker attacks, worms and viruses have been exacerbated by the discovery of security holes in many of the most widely used desktop and server operating systems, network and application software products. As a consequence, software vendors have had to release a flood of patches to fix these vulnerabilities in their products. For IT organizations, however, implementing all released patches would require an extraordinary amount of time and effort, assuming each was prioritized, thoroughly tested, and then implemented across the entire infrastructure.

Plannet’s Patch Management Services are designed to relieve these problems and facilitate a stable and secure networking environment in our customers’ dispersed business organizations and distributed technological environments. These services assist IT organizations in defining and establishing robust patch management processes, and integrating them into daily operations.

Plannet offers this vital service as part of its suite of integrated management services.  Our experience tells us that countless machines simply aren't running updated software and many organizations don't patch until something goes very wrong. Businesses undoubtedly need to take a more systematic approach to patch management. Plannet provides a solid framework for a successful patch management solution.
