Patches: Overview
Summary: High-level overview of the Patches page in Ivanti Neurons RBVM/ASPM/VULN KB.
The Patches page allows users to quickly and easily view patches and fixes that provide the most impactful results for your environment. The page shows a list of fixes that affect vulnerabilities across the environment and shows the potential Ivanti RS³ gain for completing the project. The view also shows the total number of hosts impacted by the vulnerabilities in clickable views, making it easy to see exactly what assets are affected.
The total number of assets on this page represents a view of the total assets impacted across the account. When clicking on the asset number, you will then see the assets that you specifically can access.
