Patch Management

Managed and monitored OS and third-party software updates — closing known vulnerabilities consistently across all your devices.

Most cyberattacks don't rely on sophisticated techniques — they exploit known vulnerabilities in outdated software that already have fixes available. When security updates aren't applied consistently across your devices, those gaps stay open, and attackers know exactly where to look.

Keeping every workstation in your organization patched and up to date sounds straightforward, but manually tracking updates across multiple devices — operating systems, browsers, and dozens of third-party applications — quickly becomes a full-time job. Things get missed. Devices fall behind. Gaps accumulate.

We provide managed patch management for businesses across Canada — automating and managing the entire process, deploying security updates in a controlled, consistent way across all your covered devices without disrupting your team's workday.

Who Is This Service For?

This service is a great fit for businesses that:

  • Have multiple workstations that need to be kept consistently up to date
  • Have experienced slow, inconsistent, or missed updates being applied across their devices
  • Want to reduce security exposure without adding IT overhead to their team
  • Have cyber insurance or compliance requirements that include patch management as a control
  • Are building a layered security posture and need patch management as a foundational component

What's Included

Automated Patch Deployment

Security updates for operating systems and common applications are automatically identified and deployed — closing known vulnerabilities quickly and consistently without requiring manual intervention on each device.

Third-Party Application Updates

Operating system updates alone aren't enough. Many successful attacks exploit vulnerabilities in commonly used applications like browsers, productivity tools, and PDF readers. We manage third-party application updates alongside OS patches.

Centralized Update Management

All covered devices are managed from a single platform, giving us complete visibility into patch status across your organization — ensuring every device is being maintained to the same standard.

Patch Scheduling

Updates can be scheduled to deploy during maintenance windows — evenings, weekends, or other low-activity periods — to avoid disrupting your team during business hours.

Patch Reporting

You receive clear visibility into patch status across your devices — which updates have been applied, which are pending, and which devices may need attention. No guesswork about whether your systems are actually up to date.

A Note on Scope

Patch Management focuses on keeping your systems updated and reducing security exposure through routine update deployment and monitoring. In the event that a specific update causes an unexpected compatibility issue with an application or workflow, additional troubleshooting or remediation may fall outside the scope of this service and would be handled separately.

Recommended Add-Ons

Patch management closes the vulnerabilities that attackers use to get in — but a complete security posture covers what happens if they find another way. We recommend pairing this service with:
