Episode Details

A routine support ticket reveals a deeper truth about patch management. Your patching tool says "done," but your vulnerability scanner disagrees – so who's right? In this episode, Automox SVP of Customer Experience Charles Coaxum walks through a real customer case. Dozens of machines showed as patched in the dashboard but were flagged as vulnerable by the scanner. The culprit wasn't a bug or misconfiguration. It was the often-overlooked gap between patch execution and patch completion. Learn why pending reboots create silent compliance gaps. Discover how to identify endpoints stuck in limbo. And see how automation turns hours of manual investigation into a minutes-long fix.
