The new major release of Ivanti Desktop & Server Management (DSM) is now available! This release focuses on more cloud functionality and therefore moves DSM to the future. We have greatly enhanced the DSM connector for Ivanti Neurons to use the collected DSM data directly in Ivanti Neurons for Patch Intelligence. This will allow you to have a much better overview of your environment from the security side.

It does this by delivering automated insight into your risk exposure and helps you to prioritize, based on adversarial risk. In particular, it provides real-time intelligence on vulnerability exploits that are actively trending in the wild, and those that have ties to ransomware.. Ivanti Neurons for Patch Intelligence combines this risk-based prioritization with patch reliability data to help you focus your testing efforts and reduce the overall time to patch.
