Features in 1E Patch Insights 8.2
Works with Tachyon Platform 8.2 (SaaS only)
Patch Insights is primarily for administrators who are responsible for patching their organization, to help them concentrate on the remaining devices for a patch deployment to aim for 100% patch compliance.
Using 1E Patch Insights, a user with the Patch Insights Administrator role can:
Archive patches - Protect administrators can choose to not monitor or take immediate action on certain patches. This is done by archiving patches into a separate, hidden list - with the option of getting them back when needed. The Protect administrator can set filters to include or exclude archived patches, depending on how they want to manage their patching process.
Focus on last mile patches - Using the enhanced visibility of the Patches page, Protect administrators can identify patches of concern, limit visibility to the impacted devices, and deploy patches and restart as needed.
Check patch logs - When a Protect administrator is installing a patch or troubleshooting, they can dig into the event logs to identify where the patch is getting stuck and bring it to completion.
Reboot devices - While investigating devices, Patch Insights administrators identify one or more devices that need rebooting, using 1E Patch Insights they can reboot the devices to complete the patching.
