    Key Features

    • Roles Required: To configure and schedule patches, users need the snvulpatchorch.configurepatch role. For viewing patch information, the snvulpatchorch.readpatch role is required, which is inherited with snvul.remediationowner and snvuln.vulnerabilityanalyst roles.
    • IT Remediation Workspace: Access patch data from the Home view and List view, including scorecards for preferred solutions and records of Vulnerable Items (VIs) and patches.
    • Vulnerability Manager Workspace: View patches via Home view on watch topics and List view on remediation efforts, with specific tabs for patch data and scheduled dates.
    • Patch Update Records: Provide comprehensive data including vulnerability solutions, remediation status, and associated devices and patch requests.

    Key Outcomes

    By following the guidance provided, customers can effectively manage and view patch information, track remediation efforts, and utilize performance analytics for better visibility of patch statuses. This ensures timely updates and actions can be taken to address vulnerabilities within their systems.

    Patch data and patch rollup data, as well as vulnerability information and remediation status of your vulnerabilities are displayed on records in your instance.

    Viewing patch data in the Vulnerability Response Workspaces

    Roles required:
    • sn_vul_patch_orch.configure_patch role to configure and schedule patches
    • sn_vul_patch_orch.read_patch to view (read only) patch information on records. This role is inherited with the sn_vul.remediation_owner and sn_vuln.vulnerability_analyst roles that are required for the IT Remediation and Vulnerability Manager Workspaces

    In the IT Remediation Workspace, you can view the patches:

    • On the Home view, where you can click scorecards to view records for Preferred solutions on VIs, Vulnerable CIs, and Preferred Patches on VIs.
    • On the List view, where you can view all Patch Update records (VPUs) from the Patches links, and the vulnerable items (VITs) that are assigned to you that have patches.

    You can schedule patches from the following records:

    • From Patch Update (VPU)
    • Remediation task (RT)
    • Discovered Item (SDI) records

    In the Vulnerability Manager Workspace, you can view patches:

    • From the Home view on watch topics, where you can view preferred and potential patches, Patch scheduled dates, and, if the patch has been downloaded all on the Vulnerable Items tab.
    • From the List view on remediation efforts, where you can view patch data on VI records from theVulnerable Items tab.

    From the classic environment view, navigate to All > Vulnerability Response > Patches.

    Patch Update records in the VR Workspaces and in the classic environment view

    Patch data and patch rollup data and status are displayed on records in your instance. Patch records are included as part of the patch orchestration feature of this integration with Vulnerability Response. View Patch (VPU) records in Vulnerability Response Workspaces from the List view in the IT Remediation Workspace. Patch Update records in both the classic environment and Vulnerability Response Workspaces include the following data:

    • Vulnerability solution data and information from patch vendors imported by the Vulnerability Solution Management application.
    • Source Remediation Status that includes the total number of devices that have a given vulnerability that can be fixed by a patch. Additionally, it also includes and any devices that are missing updates.
    • Remediation Status that includes % of VIs remediated and the total VIs that have a patch as a preferred patch.
    • Associated Devices, Vulnerable Items, Patch Deployments and Patch Requests on the Related Links on records in the class view. This data is displayed on tabs on records in the Vulnerability Response Workspaces.
    • Patch Requests that remediation owners have submitted for approval.

    State rollup on vulnerable item records

    For more information about state rollup to records, see Patch data and state rollup for patch orchestration in Vulnerability Response.

    Records that roll up active VI counts

    To avoid rolling up all the patches to all the vulnerabilities, the scheduled job only picks up changes to the active VI count. These count changes and related data are rolled up to the following records in Vulnerability Response:
    • VIT
    • RT
    • Vulnerability solution
    • Patch Update

    Viewing data for patches without solutions

    For more information about viewing patches without solutions, see View patches without solutions in Vulnerability Response.

    Patch data on the Vulnerability Response

    The Vulnerability Management (PA) and CISO dashboards are included with a subscription with the Performance Analytics for the Vulnerability Response application. If you have a subscription for Performance Analytics, but do not have a patch orchestration integration installed, the remediation tab is displayed on the CISO dashboard, but it is not populated with data.

    For the Vulnerability Management (PA) dashboard, navigate to All > Vulnerability Response > Overview. Click the Remediation tab and scroll to the bottom of the page to view Patch Updates data: patches scheduled and not scheduled, patches missing their target dates, and weekly counts.

    For the CISO Dashboard, navigate to All > Vulnerability Response > CISO Dashboard. With the Overview tab selected, scroll to the bottom of the page to view Patch Coverage data: Criticality, patches scheduled and not scheduled, and patches missing their target dates.

    For more information about the Vulnerability Response dashboards, see Using the default Vulnerability Response dashboards, Patch orchestration with the Vulnerability Response Workspaces, and Viewing patch orchestration data on the Vulnerability Response dashboards.
