Break down patching silos and remediate vulnerabilities faster with Puppet. Most CVEs sit unaddressed for weeks, even after your scanner picks them up. Vulnerability Remediation in Advanced Patching (a Puppet Enterprise Advanced exclusive) gives Security and Ops teams an easy-to-use dashboard for finding, fixing, and reporting on vulnerabilities. No more tossing CVEs over the fence. No more finger-pointing when things go wrong. Just swift, efficient vulnerability management.

With Puppet, patching is faster and easier than ever. Watch this video to learn how to set up and run a patch job with Advanced Patching in Puppet Enterprise Advanced.

Highlights include the easy-to-use patching GUI, custom patch groups for cross-OS patching, streamlined scheduling that obeys your defined maintenance and blackout windows, and reporting that shows you where each patch was applied.
