Case Study: Koch Industries achieves improved network visibility, faster vulnerability response, and 3,000 annual hours saved with Automox

Koch Industries, Inc. improves network visibility & vulnerability response with cloud-based endpoint management & security solutions

Koch Industries was transitioning to the cloud and decentralizing its network, which exposed gaps in endpoint visibility and left its legacy patching tools (Windows-only and repository-heavy) unable to keep up with a diverse, distributed server estate. Already using Crowdstrike for agent-based visibility, Koch Business Solutions identified Automox as a cloud-native endpoint management and patching companion that could scale with their growth and address multi‑OS patching and visibility needs.

Automox deployed its SaaS endpoint management platform and lightweight agent so Koch could patch multiple operating systems from a single dashboard and manage roughly 8,000 servers across the enterprise. The Automox solution automated out-of-band updates, increased patching frequency, and simplified agent and patch deployment alongside Crowdstrike — delivering about 3,000 hours of annual efficiency gains for Koch and enabling faster, centralized vulnerability response and easier rollouts to new acquisitions.
