Windows non administrator-level users -> Patch Management Remediation?

Marcus Hunold — Thu, 16 Jun 2022 09:31:03 GMT

Which tool can manage Windows Patch Management Check/Remediation with non administrator-level users during network access e.g. VPN? (I am using Cisco AnyConnect)

At the current guide...

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client Administrator Guide, Release 4.10 - Configure Posture [Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client] - Cisco

...there is written:

Patch management remediation triggers only for administrator-level users and only if one or more critical patches are missing on the Windows endpoint.

At least in Central Europe it is standard for companies to limit the privileges of their normal AD users.

They are not administrators neither at AD nor at the local client.

@cisco I have worked with Cisco for several decades. It is frustrating to read your colored brochures again and again - thinking "hey what a great tool / technology - let's use it", only to discover when delving into the details of the guide

that the technology is unusable for most companies. This is only mentioned in one little sentence...

What we need is a tool that applies to all users and not just administrators!
