Linux Patch Management Software That Just Works. Coming Soon.

Action1 simplifies Linux patch management for IT teams by delivering detailed visibility across all endpoints regarding existing software vulnerabilities, missing patches, compliance status, and remediation progress. Furthermore, the software enables them to immediately deploy or schedule updates and patches at convenient times using autonomous, risk-free staged rollouts, where each patch undergoes testing and proceeds to the next ring only if it meets specific success criteria.

Problematic updates are automatically stopped if they fail those criteria, which minimizes operational disruption and maximizes your team’s productivity while keeping your endpoints secure. In terms of compliance, Action1 offers more than 100 built-in, fully customizable templates that simplify report generation after each update or patch cycle. In other words, Action1 automates each step of the patch management process, so IT teams can identify vulnerabilities, remediate them, and generate audit-ready reports from a single platform with minimal manual effort for both on-premises and remote endpoints.

Action1 currently supports Debian and Ubuntu (latest LTS versions) for patching and automation. Support for Red Hat and additional major Linux distributions is planned for release later this year.

Yes, Action1 automates Linux security updates across both remote and on-premises environments, making it an ideal patch management solution for organizations with hybrid infrastructures and distributed workforces. Action1 uses a lightweight agent installed on each endpoint you want to manage. The agent communicates with the cloud platform to report the real-time state of every device, including existing vulnerabilities, installed software, missing updates, hardware specifications, and more. From there, your IT team can use Action1’s intuitive interface to plan, test, and deploy updates, close vulnerabilities, and generate audit-ready reports on demand.

Action1 uses a lightweight agent installed on each of your Linux endpoints to continuously monitor every system and communicate with the Action1 Cloud platform to provide up-to-date reports. The agent automatically identifies existing vulnerabilities and the missing patches that remediate them in real time.

The platform then compares each installed software version against Action1’s secure private software repository to instantly detect missing patches available for deployment. Once you log into the central console, the missing updates appear on the dashboard, where you can schedule their deployment to successfully remediate vulnerabilities.

Yes, Action1 can deploy updates for Linux servers, desktops, and virtual machines. The platform works equally well across all of them, and once the agent is installed, you can start patching your systems right away.

Action1 ensures compliance by delivering real-time visibility into existing vulnerabilities and missing patches across your Linux endpoints, SLA-based tracking, and the ability to generate audit-ready reports after each update cycle. The AEM platform allows you to remediate the identified software flaws by deploying updates immediately or on a schedule. Once all patches/updates are installed successfully, you can use the 100+ built-in customizable templates to generate audit-ready reports in minutes. These reports can be exported to CSV or HTML and scheduled for automated delivery via email to stakeholders, and shared with auditors to effortlessly prove your company is compliant with strict regulatory standards such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, GDPR, HIPAA, and others.

Yes, Action1 offers cross-OS support and manages Windows, macOS, and Linux systems from a single dashboard. The cloud-native AEM platform updates all these operating systems alongside hundreds of third-party applications, helping you keep every on-premises and remote endpoint secure, compliant, and running smoothly.

Yes, Action1 automatically updates offline or disconnected Linux devices as soon as they reconnect. If an endpoint is offline during a scheduled patch deployment, it won’t miss the update—it will install it the moment it’s back online. This keeps every device up to date, reduces the attack surface, and strengthens your overall network security posture.
