Security Updates & Patch Management

Let me guess, you have this network, it has a lot of computers on it, they all have a lot of software, and you just found out that a program you regularly use now has a patch or an update available. Are you going to go to all of those computers and manually upgrade them all? Sure, if you don’t have a life or business maybe, but many of us have one or both of those.

We won’t even delve into Patch Tuesday, or rolling out the latest PDF viewer, updating Firefox or Internet Explorer on all systems, those new operating system security updates, new upgrades to the larger commercial applications that are installed, let alone testing the patches and updates to make sure they wont break anything on the network or individual machines (it has happened!). Okay, maybe we did delve there.

You need someone who is familiar with the auditing process, someone who is experienced and able to find out what security patches and other software updates need to be applied to your entire network, and then proceed to quickly and efficiently apply them.

Software updates are very important, and can stop an intruder from gaining access to your systems, protect your system, fix software bugs and problems and make your machine run better. Whether it is new animation and interaction features in Adobe Flash, better form handling in Adobe Reader, faster core of Oracle Java or the new advanced and faster rendering of Firefox, updates can offer a huge benefit.

You need someone with the right tools, the experience and knowledge of using those tools to make them work right and have the know-how to deliver a good audit report and let you know exactly what is going on, what needs to happen, how it can happen, and give you the signal for when to celebrate a job well done.

If the above could all fit on our business cards, then it would be there. Sadly it wont, so we can simply say, that is what Neuron Computer Services can do. We can make it work right, the first time, in no time. Easy.
