Why Live Patch with KernelCare?
Patching that Helps You Always Stay Compliant
By deploying patches as soon as they’re available, you can more easily satisfy a number of compliance requirements related to vulnerability management, including CIS Controls, NIST CSF, PCI DSS, and ISO27001.
One Solution for Your Whole Linux Ecosystem
KernelCare is the only solution on the market that can live patch all popular Linux distributions, helping organizations enjoy the benefits of live patching while avoiding having to pay for costly vendor-specific live patching solutions or support packages.
Outlast Your OS Vendor's Live Patching Limits
KernelCare ensures continuity of live patching of each individual kernel beyond the 3-6 months typically offered by OS vendors’ proprietary solutions and eliminates the need to align maintenance windows with vendors’ release schedules.
Customize Patch Rollouts in Line with Your Policies
KernelCare gives system administrators a single transparent interface to manage automated patching – including easy integration with your existing IT automation tools for a seamless management experience.
