57% of data breaches are attributed to poor patch management.

How it works

Patch Management accelerates the software update process, taking it from months to just minutes. Our team of patch content engineers carefully inspects each patch before it gets released to you, ensuring proper compliance. We apply our years of industry experience and innovation to the test, empowering you to quickly patch and secure your third-party apps.

How it works
Scan all devices for missing patches
Select the frequency of the patch scan, either daily, weekly, or monthly, and schedule when you would like the scan to take place.
Deploy patches
All vendors, software applications, and severities will be patched automatically, but you can easily exclude individual ones from application patching if needed.
Review patch status
From the dashboard, you can view missing patches, patch names and severity levels, along with release notes, release dates, and more.

Everything you need to know to use Patch Management like a pro

No, you should not disable the Windows Update service, but you do need to adjust the Windows Update settings via the Windows Update Center and/or Group Policy. This is so Patch Management can provide updates.

The Windows Update settings should be set to either Manual or Automatic to successfully deploy patches. In addition, the Windows Update setting on each target machine (Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Update > Change settings) should be set to Never check for updates.

Deployment of patches will run under the remote machine's Local System account, so make sure this is allowed.

You can set up your patch schedule in Device Settings > Policy > Patch Management > Step 2. All devices or groups under the Patch Management policy will follow the schedule you set.

Simply go to your Patches page, which will provide detailed information on the severity of missing or installed patches with vendors, and on software applications.

You will be able to see how many devices are licensed for patch under the ‘Subscriptions’ section in the console.

Avast Business Patch Management is currently available only for Windows and Windows Server. You can find the latest system requirements in the knowledge base.

This could be due to the following reason(s):

  1. The patch is currently being installed on those devices and will sync back with the console after the patch has been successfully installed.
  2. The patch could have failed to install and will be scheduled for a reinstall based on your patch deployment schedule.
  3. The device is offline.

You can modify the patch deployment schedule and exclude vendors and applications by going to Device Settings > Select Policy > Patch Management tab.

Yes, you can manually deploy patches to individual devices and groups of devices in one step.

Patches will be in one of the following states:

  • Scheduled: Grey Icon - Patch approved and scheduled to be deployed to device/s
  • Deployed: Green Icon - Patch successfully deployed to device/s
  • Failed to deploy: Red Icon - Failed to deploy patch/es to device/s
  • Missing: Yellow Icon - Patch is missing from device/s
  • Waiting to scan: Grey Icon - Waiting to run patch scan on device
  • Failed to scan: Red Icon - Failed to run patch scan on device

It could take a few seconds or several hours. The time depends on the size of the patch that is being downloaded to the device, the software application it is updating, and the hardware of the device.

Yes, the device you have selected as the Master Agent will be used to store the software application patches and will distribute them to devices on the network to save bandwidth. If you do not have a Master Agent selected, devices will download the software application patch directly from the internet (not recommended).

Les tarifs de renouvellement de certains abonnements peuvent augmenter. Consultez les tarifs ici pour savoir quand les nouveaux tarifs entreront en vigueur.

Informations importantes sur votre abonnement

Qu'est-ce qu'un abonnement ?

Un abonnement est un engagement d'Avast envers vous, notre client, à constamment vous protéger, optimiser votre expérience et vous connecter virtuellement, contre un montant annuel prélevé via votre carte bancaire ou compte PayPal. Lorsque vous payez un abonnement, Avast vous fournit le service concerné, et ce jusqu’à résiliation/annulation de l’abonnement. Si votre abonnement a expiré, nous pouvons vous aider ici.

Les cycles d’abonnement peuvent être d’un mois, d’un an ou de plusieurs années, en fonction du service Avast auquel vous souhaitez vous abonner. Afin d’assurer la continuité du service et d’éviter toute interruption, Avast débitera automatiquement le mode de paiement enregistré à la fin du cycle d’abonnement réglé.

Conditions tarifaires et de renouvellement automatique

Un montant pour le prochain cycle d’abonnement sera facturé au plein tarif alors en vigueur. Ce montant sera prélevé sur votre moyen de paiement enregistré, dans les 35 jours avant l’expiration de votre abonnement Avast. Ce montant est sous réserve de modification. Pour les abonnements annuels, nous vous enverrons un rappel 65 jours avant la date d’expiration pour vous rappeler qu’un montant vous sera facturé pour un autre cycle d’abonnement.

Les produits Avast sont vendus par « abonnement continu » : pendant tout votre cycle d’abonnement, nous fournissons un support ininterrompu (via nos logiciels). Cela signifie que votre abonnement se renouvelle automatiquement à son terme –, sauf si vous l'annulez manuellement avant la prochaine date de facturation ou si à l'échéance, nous n’arrivons pas à débiter votre moyen de paiement enregistré. Nous appliquons ce concept d'abonnement continu afin de garantir la continuité de notre service, sans aucune interruption.

Avast propose de nombreux services auxquels vous pouvez vous abonner annuellement. Nous accordons souvent des réductions sur la première année d’abonnement pour permettre aux utilisateurs de s’engager plus facilement et de profiter de nos services leaders sur le marché. Cela signifie que votre premier cycle d’abonnement peut bénéficier d'une réduction par rapport aux cycles suivants – une différence de prix que nous vous indiquons clairement lorsque vous vous abonnez à notre service. Avant l'expiration de votre abonnement, nous vous communiquerons le montant du prochain cycle d’abonnement, par le biais d'un rappel de facturation.

Abonnements : mise à jour, annulation et remboursement

Avast ne facture que le moyen de paiement que vous avez enregistré et ne peut vous facturer d’aucune autre façon pour votre service Avast en cours. Cela signifie que c'est à vous d'accepter l’enregistrement de votre moyen de paiement lors du premier achat, et de le maintenir à jour pour garantir la continuité du service tout au long du cycle d’abonnement. Vous pouvez annuler votre abonnement via le compte Avast lié à l'adresse e-mail fournie lors de l'achat de l'abonnement. Pour plus d’informations et d’instructions sur la manière d’annuler un abonnement, rendez-vous ici .

Vous pouvez solliciter un remboursement jusqu’à 30 jours après la date initiale d’abonnement ou l’anniversaire de votre abonnement, en contactant le service client d’Avast. Pour plus d’informations générales sur les abonnements et renouvellements, rendez-vous ici.

Responsabilités du client

Si nous prenons notre engagement envers vous très au sérieux, nous comptons également sur vous pour vous inscrire ou télécharger, installer et mettre à jour régulièrement notre logiciel. Ceci est important car nous améliorons et étendons constamment nos services et tenons à ce que vous bénéficiez de nos efforts. Ces améliorations et extensions continues restent soumises au CLUF d’Avast, que vous pouvez consulter ici.
