About Patch Management

Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud allows you to manage updates for the applications installed on your users' devices running Windows, including patches that fix software vulnerabilities detected on the devices.

This feature is available only if you activated Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud under a Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud Plus or Pro license.

Updates functionality (including providing anti-malware signature updates and codebase updates), as well as KSN functionality may not be available in the software in the U.S.
