ENDPOINT SECURITY

What does DESSS deliver for Patch and Vulnerability Management

DESSS delivers Patch and Vulnerability Management on Endpoint & Email Security through the patch and vulnerability management rollout: estate and ownership assessment; baseline and compliance design; ring one pilot; application packaging and update rings; estate enrolment; compliance-gated access. Each step closes with named deliverables you sign off before the next begins.

THE WORKFLOW

6 steps, start to finish

Every engagement follows a documented sequence, so you always know which stage the work is in and what closes it.

  • Estate and ownership assessment — Weeks 1–2
  • Baseline and compliance design — Weeks 2–4
  • Ring one pilot — Weeks 4–6
  • Application packaging and update rings — Weeks 5–9
  • Estate enrolment — Weeks 9–14
  • Compliance-gated access — Weeks 13–16
WHAT YOU GET

Named deliverables, signed off

Each step closes with deliverables you review and approve before the next one begins — progress you can audit rather than a status colour on a slide.

  • Device inventory
  • OS version report
  • Ownership model
  • Baseline design
  • Compliance policy
  • Exception register
  • Pilot results
  • Conflict log
  • Policy adjustments
  • Packaged applications
HOW WE DELIVER

Inside the Patch and Vulnerability Management workflow

Device management rolled out in rings, so a bad policy reaches ten machines rather than ten thousand.

Step 01
Weeks 1–2

Estate and ownership assessment

Managed, unmanaged, shared and personally owned devices are inventoried with their operating system versions and ownership model, which sets what Patch and Vulnerability Management can realistically enforce.

Deliverables:

  • Device inventory
  • OS version report
  • Ownership model
Step 04
Weeks 5–9

Application packaging and update rings

Business applications are packaged and assigned in Endpoint & Email Security, with update rings and deferral periods set so patches roll out steadily rather than all at once or never.

Deliverables:

  • Packaged applications
  • Update rings
  • Patch policy
Step 02
Weeks 2–4

Baseline and compliance design

Configuration baselines, encryption, local administrator handling and compliance criteria are designed against recognised benchmarks with documented, time-limited exceptions.

Deliverables:

  • Baseline design
  • Compliance policy
  • Exception register
Step 05
Weeks 9–14

Estate enrolment

Departments enrol in waves with communications and helpdesk support per wave, and provisioning for new devices moves to zero-touch as part of the same rollout.

Deliverables:

  • Enrolment waves
  • Zero-touch provisioning
  • Support briefing
Step 03
Weeks 4–6

Ring one pilot

IT devices enrol first and run the full policy set for two weeks, surfacing the application conflicts and user friction that a lab never reproduces.

Deliverables:

  • Pilot results
  • Conflict log
  • Policy adjustments
Step 06
Weeks 13–16

Compliance-gated access

Device compliance becomes a condition of access to company data, and drift, non-compliance and patch coverage are reported monthly to a named owner.

Deliverables:

  • Access gating
  • Compliance dashboard
  • Monthly reporting

COMMON QUESTIONS

About Patch and Vulnerability Management

A typical DESSS Patch and Vulnerability Management delivery runs 6 steps, with the final step reached around weeks 13–16. Complex integrations, multi-entity scope, or regulated environments extend that — the discovery session produces a dated plan for your case rather than an average.

Every step closes with named deliverables — Access gating, Baseline design, Compliance dashboard, Compliance policy, Conflict log, Device inventory, Enrolment waves, Exception register — so progress is visible, auditable, and reviewable rather than a status colour on a slide.

Yes. Integration with the systems your patch management depends on is designed early and delivered with validation, monitoring, and error handling, so failures are visible and recoverable.

No. Patch and Vulnerability Management is often delivered alongside the other Endpoint & Email Security products listed below, in a phased roadmap that avoids rebuilding earlier phases. DESSS sequences them so each phase stands on its own.
