# Patching and vulnerabilities

Patching without monthly negotiation: agreements with service owners and a plan in waves.

ITIL 4 practice · Release management · Deployment management · Information security management

## What it does

-   Scanner findings by server and service, actively exploited vulnerabilities first
-   Patch agreements by service class with a standing window and silent consent
-   Patch plans in waves and changes created from the plan in one step
-   Expedited mode for critical vulnerabilities and patching without downtime

## Measurable benefits

1.  **Overdue vulnerabilities**number of findings past their remediation deadline, actively exploited ones first
2.  **Services with a patch agreement**share of services with a standing window and patching rules
3.  **Fix outlook**findings fixed according to plan for the next 8 weeks

The application calculates these indicators from your own data, so you can prove the improvement with numbers from the first month.
