What Made This Happen

Challenge

A leading enterprise specializing in IT infrastructure management needed a comprehensive view of their patch compliance across all systems. Their existing patch management solution was limited in scope, unable to handle Ubuntu and Debian environments, leading to compliance gaps and increased vulnerability exposure. The enterprise also struggled with a lack of orchestration between their vulnerability scanner and patch management processes, resulting in manual interventions, delays, and inconsistent patching outcomes.

Solution

Vidyatech deployed its DashMagiq® Patch Management Compliance solution to automate and extend the client’s patch management capabilities, as discussed below:


DashMagiq® integrated seamlessly with the client’s existing Patch Management software to include support for Ubuntu and Debian systems, which were previously unsupported. This ensured comprehensive patching coverage, reducing vulnerabilities across all environments.

The solution leveraged the client’s existing vulnerability scanner and patching tools, automating the entire patching workflow to minimize manual interventions. DashMagiq® automated the process of identifying, approving, and deploying patches, significantly reducing patch deployment time.

Automatic rule-based approvals and GRC workflows.

DashMagiq provided a single-screen dashboard that consolidated information from vulnerability assessments, compliance status, pending patches, and schedules. This unified view enabled IT teams to monitor and manage patch compliance efficiently.

Automated email notifications and role-specific dashboards ensured that the right stakeholders were alerted to critical patch updates.

Gated approach ensures no patch is deployed on critical servers before its tested.

The intuitive design of DashMagiq® made it easy for even junior resources to execute patching processes, reducing the reliance on senior IT staff.

Business Benefits and Impacts

The deployment of DashMagiq® significantly transformed the bank's alert resolution process, yielding multiple benefits:

Improved Operational Efficiency: Automation reduced manual patching efforts, freeing up resources for higher-value tasks.

Real-Time Visibility: The centralized dashboard provided complete visibility into patching activities, thereby improving compliance reporting accuracy.

Cost Savings: By simplifying the patch management process, DashMagiq® reduced the need for senior IT resources, leading to a reduction in patch management costs.

Faster Patch Deployment: Automated orchestration cut down patch deployment time, enhancing the enterprise’s ability to respond to critical vulnerabilities promptly.

What Made This Happen

DashMagiq® Patch Management Compliance

Patching to remediate vulnerabilities is an expensive process and patching critical servers needs experienced and trained resources. Moreover, existing Patch Management software generally do not support Ubuntu/Debian and Solaris OS. DashMagiq® Patch Management Compliance orchestrates patch management systems, vulnerability scanners, and GRC workflows to provide a comprehensive but simple process to meet your compliance goals, along with providing extension agents that work with your existing Patch Management product to bridge the gap.
