Hi, I am able to get all the computers connected to a network. Now my next step is to track the list of patches in these computers. For this to achieve -pls advise me how to proceed. Pls correct me if I am going wrong. 1.Detect type of OS on the target machine . 2.List the patches present on the target machine. 3.List out the dependancies of each patch. For that-Do I need to know the list of softwares on the target machine? -Do I need to know the list of service packages on the target machine? -How a patch is detected on the target machine? -How a patch is applicable on the target machine? Regards

Updates that are sent out in between two normally scheduled updates (e.g., critical issue or vulnerability found).
