Who uses a patching and monitoring service?

Patching and monitoring services are open to companies of all sizes, but can benefit some more than others.

Monitoring involves maintaining company systems and software use and identifying vulnerabilities that puts firms at risk of a range of issues – from slow performance to cybercrime.

Patching resolves issues, updating operating systems and applications with security fixes. However, services also extend to monitoring hardware to ensure it’s still fit-for purpose, and can accept updates and run the latest editions of apps.

What kinds of companies choose patching and monitoring services?

Every company has its own individual IT needs. A patching and monitoring service is a practical solution for newly founded businesses that don’t require full IT support. It can help companies to keep overheads low while ensuring that systems operate smoothly, and if remote assistance is required occasionally, it’s ready and available.

What are the benefits of a patching and monitoring service?

There are several security advantages to patching and monitoring. Services help spot and resolve vulnerabilities in hardware and software that can lead to data breaches and other types of cyberattacks. This heads off issues before they turn into expensive problems to fix.

Regular patching ensures that software and apps are up-to-date and operating smoothly, minimising performance issues and downtime. Patching and monitoring also help firms meet regulatory requirements, keeping them compliant with privacy and data security legislation.
