Case Study: a large manufacturing enterprise remediates vulnerabilities 60% faster with Vicarius vRx

a large manufacturing company cuts patching time 60% with Vicarius

A large manufacturing enterprise faced significant challenges with its patch management process. Using ManageEngine as their primary solution, they experienced delays of up to three hours to patch Windows servers, and the tool did not adequately support patching for third-party applications. This resulted in frequent downtime, increased vulnerability exposure, and an overwhelming manual effort for their IT team. The company turned to Vicarius and its vRx platform for a more effective solution.

By implementing Vicarius vRx, the company automated its patching process, including for third-party applications, and utilized vulnerability dashboards for prioritization. The results were significant: patching time was reduced by 60%, from three hours to under one hour. This allowed the IT team to remediate hundreds of thousands of vulnerabilities monthly, drastically improving their security posture and operational efficiency. The customer was highly satisfied, rating Vicarius vRx a nine out of ten.
