Patch Management

All video libraries

Qualys Patch Management lets you automatically correlate vulnerabilities and patch data, improving your remediation response time. Because Qualys Patch Management uses the Qualys Cloud Agent, it deploys patches wherever an agent has been installed, including remote systems and public cloud assets.

For the best experience, Qualys recommends the certified Patch Management course: self-paced or instructor-led.

To learn the individual topics in this course, watch the videos below.
