Here, we are going to take leverage of Query Builder to suggest team which patches are required to be in your Fixlet during the deployment of the patches.

  • You need the below query to form the solution report to collect solutions and required KBs.
  1. Vulnerabilities.publishdate
  2. vendor.product
  3. Tag or group of assets

Vulnerabilities.publishdate

Here, you need to feed the date of the patch Tuesday or the date on which Microsoft released their patches.

vendor.product

Here, you have to feed the Vendor name which is Microsoft.

Tag or group of assets

That will help you to fetch the separate solution report of endpoints and servers or groups of specific assets.

Now just click over the solutions tab and export the solution report.

Final Step

You have to share that solution report with the remediation team.

Here, I will take an example:- a solution report for servers.

  1. Vulnerabilities.publishdate:11/07/2023
  2. vendor.product:Microsoft
  3. Tag or group of assets:Servers

Thank you, everyone,

Hope, we will meet you soon with a new way to track patching.

If you have another scenario, share it with me in the comment. I like to work on that.
