Operating System Patching

Operating System Patching is an important part of keeping the systems and applications in your Coresio Virtual Datacenter safe from malicious users who will exploit vulnerabilities left open when operating systems are not kept up-to-date.  With our Operating System Patching managed service your IT team is freed up to focus on core IT competencies necessary to propel your organization forward. 

Smart Technology

Proactive Protection
An effective patch management process can close vulnerabilities before malicious users or worms have an opportunity to exploit them. The timely deployment of patches dramatically reduces corporate risk.

Low System Overhead
Our Operating System Patching does not require a software agent to be installed on your virtual machine, freeing up memory, CPU and storage space for more important items.

Full Visibility
Coresio Client Support provides ongoing monitoring and detailed status reports available in PDF format either through our web portal or via e-mail. You can also check the status in real-time on the host system.

Quality Control
Coresio runs a scan after the patching process is completed to verify that all patches were installed correctly. If there are any missing patches, Coresio Client Support will notify you to coordinate a manual patching window at your convenience.
