| Automate Patch testing and deployment while you enjoy your holiday |  |
| Patching has become a hot topic and is identified as one of the main ways you can avoid being vulnerable to attacks. Successfully testing, deploying and managing patches is neither fun nor the easiest job and no one wants to do it while we are planning to enjoy a bit of sun this holiday season. ManageEngine has a few Patch Management solutions depending on what you need but at its core, you can automate testing, deployment and reporting of OS and 3rd party patches to systems to keep them healthy and even better you can use your handy mobile app to do this remotely. Patch Manager Plus is cost effective and is approximately $1.00 per device per month billed annually (minimum 50 devices cause its totally free for up to 25 devices). Have a look at our expert for more information. | |

| Interstellar Driftwood or Alien Probe? |  |
| In mid-October, a discovery was made of a metallic space rock up to 800 meters long and only 80 wide that passed by Earth. It is already headed outbound from our solar system and scientists are using large radio telescopes to listen for any emitting interstellar radio transmissions. The mysterious object has been named Oumuamua (Hawaiian for “first messenger”), it appears to be quite solid & tailor made to weather long journeys between stars. Unfortunately, there haven’t been any satisfactory explanations as to how an extremely elongated solid object could form & endure the forces of a high-speed ejection from another star system. But it is argued that if it was a probe, it would cruise at higher speeds for faster trips between stars & Oumuamua doesn’t show signs of movement due to rocketry or other technology. Do you believe it’s interstellar driftwood or an alien probe? You can decide for yourself, Sales team. | |
