For laptops that do not access the corporate network for months at a time, the IT team provides remote network access, enabling users to receive automatic patch updates from the road or the client site. The IT team also maintains an informational website outlining which patches users need and how to get them if they are beyond the reach of a Booz Allen office.

With PatchLink Update, the IT team no longer has to inspect each laptop, instead, they automate the patch deployment process, making it much more efficient and cost effective. This approach also ensures consultants meet the security requirements they need to access client networks and get the job done.
