Key Capabilities / Features

Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management offers a unified view of all endpoints — both on-premises and in the cloud — across Windows, macOS and Linux systems, as well as third-party applications. Its cloud-native design facilitates a seamless transition from on-premises to cloud patch management, enabling organizations to transition at their leisure and providing visibility into devices managed both in the cloud and on-premises through a single pane of glass.

One of the key features of Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management is its proprietary Vulnerability Risk Rating (VRR) system. This system moves beyond traditional Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) scores by implementing context-sensitive, real-world threat data and trends. This allows organizations to prioritize patches more effectively, focusing on vulnerabilities that pose the most significant risk.

Another key feature is the automation of vulnerability-to-patch mapping, which significantly reduces the manual workload for IT teams by automatically matching vulnerabilities with the correct patches. Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management supports autonomous patch deployment across extensive networks, swiftly mitigating security risks. Additionally, patch configurations can operate independently based on schedules set by the patch manager, allowing IT staff to focus on more strategic initiatives.

Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management is not just an efficient tool, but an essential component in modern cybersecurity strategy. Its comprehensive features, intelligent risk prioritization, and seamless integration elevate it above traditional patch management solutions, providing organizations with the confidence and capability to protect their systems against evolving threats. By bridging the gap between IT and security operations, it not only enhances security but also ensures operational efficiency, making it an indispensable asset for any forward-thinking organization.

How we are different

• Breaking Down Barriers Between IT and Security
Integrating IT and security operations is vital in cybersecurity. Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management adopts a risk-based approach, connecting IT and security to enhance security and simplify processes. This integration allows for data sharing, swift joint actions, and reduces operational friction, resulting in a unified response to stakeholder concerns. Ivanti Neurons breaks down traditional silos, fostering a more collaborative and efficient operational flow.

• Compliance Reporting
The solution autonomously calculates Service Level Agreements (SLAs) based on the release dates of updates, aligning patch management with security reporting requirements. This approach shifts from conventional IT operational SLAs to those prescribed by security standards, thus addressing the prevalent challenge where IT departments struggle to meet both operational benchmarks and the stringent demands of security teams. By evaluating SLAs from a vulnerability perspective, Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management ensures compliance is maintained, enhancing the overall security framework of customers.

• Unparalleled Patch Intelligence
Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management provides risk-based prioritization and patch reliability features. It immediately assesses and mitigates risks, offering visibility into threat insights and risk intelligence. This helps IT administrators prioritize testing and deployment, reducing operational impacts and vulnerability risks. Crowdsourced reliability and sentiment data further enable informed decisions, enhancing the patch management process. As the only patch management solution in the market that offers intelligence on known exploits and threat context for vulnerabilities, alongside patch deployment capabilities, Ivanti Neurons for Patch Management stands out as an essential tool, ensuring that vulnerabilities are prioritized and patched effectively through a single, integrated platform.
