Email Alert When New 3rd Party Patch Is Added

Usage and Config Patch
1

Hi All,

Is there any way to have an email sent out when a new patch is automatically added to the 3rd Party Application Patches in the Patch Management site? I just need the updates categorized as a “Security Update”. I do not want Microsoft Patches as we have a WSUS server to handle that.

Is there anyway to do this?

You should be able to achieve this via a Scheduled Activity in Web Reports:

  1. set the report type to ‘Alert’
  2. Generate report every 1 day, with ‘Match Relevance conditions’ checked, and include the following session relevance:

exists bes fixlets whose (name of site of it starts with "Updates" AND category of it = "Security Update" AND (date (local time zone) of modification time of it = current date))
