KIRKLAND, Wash. — April 25, 2024 — Adaptiva, the autonomous endpoint management company, today unveiled key updates to OneSite Patch designed to streamline and secure the updating process for device drivers across enterprise networks. Building on its established dominance in autonomous endpoint management, Adaptiva’s new offering tackles the complex and often risk-laden task of keeping drivers up to date, ensuring enhanced system performance and bolstered security.
“These OneSite Patch updates mark a milestone in our quest to simplify endpoint management for drivers,” said Aviral Sangal, Director for Application Metadata Engineering and Automation at Adaptiva. “By automating a traditionally cumbersome process and expanding our patch library from ~800 to more than 1,600 over the last six months, we’re enhancing IT efficiency and strengthening the security fabric of our clients’ digital environments.”
Driver updates often require system reboots and can render devices temporarily inoperable—a process fraught with risk and difficulty when done manually. Recognizing the critical nature of timely and efficient driver updates, Adaptiva’s solution automates various tasks, mirroring the simplicity and reliability of software patching.
Key updates of OneSite Patch include:
- Saving Time and Reducing Errors: Adaptiva’s automated driver, BIOS, and firmware patching solution empower IT administrators by integrating seamlessly with their existing patch deployment processes.

Now including over 1,600+ apps and key system parts, the solution provides easy updates, scheduled rollouts, and automated checks. These capabilities ensure smooth operation and secure endpoint management with less manual work.
- Customer-Driven Innovation: This solution was partly inspired by customer feedback, which highlighted a market need for more efficient driver management tools. Early interest from leading financial institutions underscores its potential to impact operational efficiency and security postures within large organizations.
