Linux Patch Manager
Enterprise-class secure web-based management interface for controlling patching and updates on Linux servers and workstations.
Overview
Linux Patch Manager provides a centralized web interface to manage patching and software updates across a fleet of Linux servers and workstations. It communicates with managed devices through the Linux Patch API, leveraging mTLS-secured RESTful endpoints for all operations.
Key Features
- Centralized Dashboard — Monitor patch status across all managed hosts from a single interface
- Multi-Distribution Support — Manage Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS/Fedora, Alpine, and Arch hosts
- Secure by Design — mTLS authentication, role-based access control, audit logging
- Batch Operations — Apply patches and updates across multiple hosts simultaneously
- Scheduling — Plan and schedule patch windows with approval workflows
- Reporting — Compliance reporting and patch status dashboards
Architecture
Linux Patch Manager is a web application that acts as a management plane, communicating with the Linux Patch API agent running on each managed host.
