#POWERPOINT FOR MAC 2012 UPDATE#

Last time we showed you how you can patch 3rd party apps on Windows through System Center Update Manager. We need one system to manage all our patches and one pane of glass to prove compliance from data center to desktop.Д«elieve it or not System Center 2012 R2 provides the infrastructure to do just that вЂ“ it just needs a little help. If at least 80% of the computers on your network are Windows and the remaining 20% are everything else вЂ“ itвЂ™s a safe bet, given the maturity and ease of WSUS, that 20% of your patching effort goes to Windows but 80% of your effort is consumed with patching all the different flavors of UNIX, Linux and your Mac computers. Watch the vulnerability lists and youвЂ™ll see that Macs need patching too. More and more people are opting for Macs instead of Windows. Again itвЂ™s not just a Windows story any more.

These can be a real pain point for admins who specialize in Windows or are managed by an entirely different admin.Дesktops (Windows and Macs)Maybe you are responsible for desktops instead of servers.

Linux and UNIX servers often fulfill critical functions with few and short maintenance windows. Servers (Windows, UNIX and Linux)Even Windows-centric environments have at least a few UNIX or Linux servers that need to be secure and patched. With compliance, what we have to pay attention to is whatвЂ™s actually out there on our network вЂ“ not just what you wish were there. From desktop and laptop to server and every operating system in between.
