FlyerZENworks Patch Management
Threats happen. And they’re coming at you faster all the time. Patches are your best protection
against vulnerability, but you’ve got even more patches coming at you than threats. Keeping up andkeeping safe seem like impossible missions.

Two things leave you wide open to patch disaster: threat velocity and patch decay. Threat
velocity is the speed at which threats come at
you—there are more now, and they’re moving
faster every day. Patch decay is the speed atwhich systems wear through their patches andwind up completely unprotected.
If you’re patching by hand, there’s no way tokeep up with what’s coming at you. Even if
you’re using traditional patch management,
it had better be scanning the landscape 24hours a day because you might not catch athreat in time otherwise.

Patch management isn’t anything new, andyou have plenty of tools to choose from. But
only ZENworks gives you:
■ A policy-based solution that applies yourstandards to proactively patch yoursystems.
■ A single console and adaptive agents thatyou can access at anytime from anywhere.
■ A choice of backend platforms—including

Windows, Linux, SQL, Sybase, and Oracle
databases.
■ The reach to patch thousands of systems,

applications, and devices running inphysical, virtual, and cloud environments.

Beat the Threat Clock
OpenText™ ZENworks Patch Management
watches your back, patching everything you’ve
got on your network 24 hours a day, without
constant human intervention.
With its unique policy-based approach, you set
up the policies, define the actions, and then sit
back and let ZENworks do the rest:■ Establishes a security profile for every

managed node on your network■ Scans for patch status■ Pulls from more than 10,000 patches thatare pretested to work safely with what
you have■ Patch management isn’t anything new,and you have plenty of tools to choose
from. But only ZENworks gives you: Verifies
the status of all patch activity in real time
■ Documents what you patch, so you canprove compliance for both internal andexternal audits■ Patches anything you put on your network

instantly, bringing each new installation
into compliance

Know It. Prove It.
According to the Yankee Group, 20% of yoursystems will become “unpatched” over thecourse of the year. Do you know which one will
become vulnerable first? How do you prioritize
what gets patched when threats are swarming
your system, waiting to exploit a weakness?
With ZENworks Patch Management, you don’t
have to hope you’re patched—you’ll know.
Detailed reports and real-time alerts tell you
when, what, and where you’re vulnerable. So if
you’ve decided to wait on a patch—and haven’t told ZENworks to patch a particular application automatically—you’ll still know its status
and what your options are.
You can prove it’s patched, too—without
sending an army to gather patch statistics.
Dynamic reports show exactly where you’recompliant and where you’re not—right down
to the device.

“Recently, we had to deploy a Microsoft patch
quickly and used ZENworks Patch Management
to get it out to all our locations in no time.”

Even when you install a new device, ZENworks
automatically patches it to meet your standards, so you know it’s compliant from themoment it hits your system.

You’ve Got Patches
For every application you use, you’ll have araft of patches to address through its lifetime.
And you have a lot of applications: Windows,Oracle, and SAP, just to name a few.
So if you’re using a patch tool that only does
Windows—or one that only patches when you
personally push a button to make it happen—
you’ve got a problem.
ZENworks patches everything you tell it to. All
the time. Even if you’re asleep at home. Could
this get any easier?

It doesn’t matter how fast threats come at you
because you’re patched all the time. It closes

use anything out there if you don’t care what
happens next. But to patch and protect yoursystems proactively, according to the policies
and standards you set in advance, you needjust one tool: ZENworks Patch Management.
