Security benefits
One of the most common ways computers are exploited is vulnerabilities in outdated third-party applications or libraries. For example, in the report, 2022 Top Routinely Exploited Vulnerabilities | CISA from United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT), the section “Top Routinely Exploited Vulnerabilities” shows the top 12 exploited vulnerabilities from 2022. Often, exploits are targeted against non-Microsoft products. In the 2022 list, the following third-party products were targeted.
- Citrix VPN appliances (CVE-2019-19781)
- Pulse Secure VPN servers (CVE-2019-11510)
Another great feature is real-time alerts via Microsoft Teams as new updates are published, allowing for quick response to important updates that contain critical security fixes.
Time saving benefits
Another major benefit of automating third-party update and application creation is time savings. By offloading the tedious task of packaging, testing, troubleshooting, and deploying applications in your environment, administrators will have more time to focus on other more important tasks.
In a recent Twitter survey, the average time it took to package an application in Configuration Manager or Intune manually was 3.5 hours.
On average 1,329 updates and applications are published per-year for each Patch My PC customer. If packaged manually, the average time spent would be 4,651 hours or 194 days.
At our core, we specialize in automating the creation of third-party software updates and applications within SCCM. Our integration supports both Configuration Manager and Intune.
The primary benefits of our product are improved security by patching vulnerable third-party applications and time-savings for administrators.
