Automated Patching Management
Reduce exposure and improve cyber resilience with an automated patching management service informed by organisational risks and vulnerabilities.
Trusted cyber security partner to leading New Zealand organisations.
Keeping operating systems and applications patched remains one of the most effective controls for reducing cyber risk – yet many organisations struggle with scale, consistency, and speed. CyberCX’s automated patch management service helps organisations deploy patches reliably and at pace, informed by real-world risk and threat intelligence.
Benefits of Automated Patching
Reduce cyber risk, improve operational efficiency, and accelerate remediation of vulnerabilities across both operating systems and third-party applications through considered deployment policies, phased rollout rings, and real-time compliance visibility.
Reduced attack surface
Rapid and consistent deployment of security patches reduces exposure to known vulnerabilities and active exploits.
Risked-based prioritisation
Patch decisions are informed by vulnerability severity and threat intelligence, ensuring effort is focused where it matters most.
Operational efficiency
Automation reduces manual effort, minimises patching windows, and improves reliability across large and diverse environments.
What is Automated Patching?
Automated patching provides a centralised, policy-driven approach to keeping devices secure, compliant, and up to date. By automatically identifying missing updates and deploying patches, organisations can reduce manual effort while ensuring critical security and stability updates are applied consistently across their environment.
Who needs Automated Patching?
Organisations facing challenges with manual, inconsistent or delayed patching cycles, particularly those are managing a range of operating systems and applications.
Automated patching is ideal for organisations looking to improve Essential Eight or vulnerability management maturity, and to achieve tighter linkage between vulnerability detection and remediation.
Our Automated Patching approach
Leveraging our best-in-market pragmatic approach, we deliver a high value Automated Patching service over five phases.
Phase 1: Assess
Collaborate with your team to examine your existing patching tools, processes and business requirements.
Phase 2: Design
Design a patching solution, create and deploy that meets your business requirements and is integrated with your existing systems.
Phase 3: Build
Integrate the designed solution within your environment while developing your team’s operational capability.
Phase 4: Test
While your team will be guided through all phases of implementation, our team will provide a well documented solution and standard operating procedures to support the successful management of the platform.
Phase 5: Handover
Transitioning to a solution that automatically patches multiple devices in your environment is often a big shift. We will work with you to deploy the solution through a controlled rollout, ensuring it works as expected.
Customer success story
“We now have an automated system to manage and deploy security updates across our fleet of devices which as well as providing a more reliable, measurable outcome is also saving us approximately one month of internal engineering time a year.”
