Patch management software is designed to automate the process of identifying, acquiring, testing, and deploying updates (patches) to software applications, operating systems, and firmware. These patches typically fix security vulnerabilities, resolve bugs, or improve performance. Patch management tools centralize this process across an organization’s IT infrastructure, ensuring systems remain compliant and protected against threats. Many platforms integrate with vulnerability scanners, compliance frameworks, and reporting dashboards to provide visibility and control. By streamlining updates, patch management software reduces risk, improves system stability, and minimizes downtime for IT teams.
