Desktop Authority Patch Distribution and Deployment Option (PDD) gives organizations the ability to download, distribute, and deploy patches from a single management console. Integrated with the Desktop Authority platform, administrators can now manage their desktops and patch deployment from one easy to use interface.

 

This solution gives administrators a way to securely distribute and deploy patches by:

•Simplifying the task of installing Microsoft Operating System and application patches onto desktops across the enterprise, and eliminate attacks that exploit unpatched systems
•Downloading and deploying Third Party patches on all desktops from a single location (i.e. Adobe, FireFox, WinZip, and more)
•Reporting on where patches are missing and installed based on severity
•Protecting desktops vulnerability and deciding which users should receive which patches at what time

 

 

Desktop Authority Patch Deployment for Desktops Option builds on the Desktop Authority platform to dramatically simplify the task of installing Microsoft Operating System and application patches onto desktops across the enterprise, and shut the door on attacks that exploit unpatched systems.

 

 

 

 

The Patch Deployment for Desktops Option takes the tasks of downloading patches from Microsoft, distributing them to deployment servers, selecting appropriate patches, selecting clients and deploying patches, and wraps them all up into the easy-to-use Desktop Authority Manager console, minimizing the amount of time required by administrators to manage patch deployment, while maximizing control over the patch management process.

 

When used in combination with all of Desktop Authoritys other capabilities, administrators can secure their desktops against a wide range of attacks. Desktop Authority can implement desktop Security Policies, configure the Windows Firewall, lock down file and registry security and more, and the Spyware Detection and Removal option gives enterprise-class protection against spyware.
