New and updated features enable IT admins to pause, cancel, rollback, and block patching processes quickly
KIRKLAND, Wash., September 9, 2024 — Adaptiva, a global leader in autonomous endpoint management, today announced the launch of Flex Controls in OneSite Patch, which give users advanced management capabilities over their patch deployment processes, including the ability to immediately pause or cancel patch rollouts as well as rollback patches to previous versions or block unwanted patches. These tools deliver confidence, security, and safety to users by providing the control necessary for efficient autonomous patching and vulnerability remediation.
With 90% of successful cyberattacks starting at the endpoint and more than 28,000 vulnerabilities disclosed last year, the need for organizations to quickly deploy patches using automation is clear. However, many IT leaders worry about unstable patches disrupting business operations or interrupting end users. With Adaptiva Flex Controls, IT administrators can have the confidence and peace of mind to automate patching with the safety measures in place to pause, cancel, rollback, or block patches on an individual level or globally.
“Patching automation is essential to keep organizations safe in an increasingly hostile and aggressive cyber environment. However, we also know from our experience in managing patching for many of today’s largest enterprises that the occasional automated patch deployment can sometimes produce unexpected results,” said Dr. Deepak Kumar, Founder and CEO of Adaptiva. “With Flex Controls, OneSite Patch customers have the confidence to know they can easily address and limit the impact of unanticipated patching issues the moment they arise. These features were designed to give our customers the peace of mind to automate patching with both speed and control.”
Here are all the new features found within the Flex Controls update to OneSite Patch:
Adaptiva’s OneSite Patch is unmatched in the controls it hands users to deploy patches automatically on their own terms. Flex Controls adds to the long list of capabilities that enable IT teams to automate patch management securely at scale. Features like deployment waves, metadata testing, maintenance windows, and approval management ensure patches are deployed exactly to IT administrator specifications.
“With OneSite Patch, organizations can accelerate, adapt, and automate their patch management, and now with Flex Controls, users will have many more options when it comes to the ‘adapt’ part of the equation,” said Chaz Spahn, Product Evangelist at Adaptiva. “Customers can feel confident in their patching strategy, knowing that if something does go wrong, OneSite Patch makes it simple to get back on track.”
