3rd-Party Software Patching Using SCCM and Shavlik SCUPdates

Shavlik will be presenting a very informative session on 3rd Party Software Patching using SCCM and Shavlik's SCUPdates. SCCM does a great job of distributing software and deploying updates for the latest Microsoft operating systems and Microsoft applications like Office 2007. What about Adobe Reader and hundreds of other vulnerable applications? Shavlik SCUPdates address a major business pain (keeping up with 3rd party updates) and puts time back into your schedule. Here is a way to leverage a single SCCM workflow for deploying updates for both Microsoft and non-Microsoft applications.

Greg Wright and John Rush will be here from Shavlik Technologies.
