Requesting help with a SWQL query to generate a report on missing patches.

veera.sivareddy 2 months ago

I am very new to SQL and SWQL and am seeking assistance with a query I’m developing for a customer report. Specifically, I need help creating a SWQL query to generate a report that identifies and lists missing patches. The goal is to provide a comprehensive overview of which patches are not installed or are overdue, helping to highlight gaps in the patch management process. Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have patch manager?

I've not used patch manager. The patching question is not something a single person can do from scratch really, you wont have a data source for every random program in the estate's newest versions, need to rely on something that has a team of engineers maintaining it.

Someone please prove me wrong, got a patch report on my todo.

I did do some stuff in this space for cisco, vmware and netapp, it was a PITA. You can get other software versions installed from the softwareinventory table/poller if you had a data source for current versions for all those you could match em up in theory.

If you're talking just windows core or something that becomes a more limited question and you've got more options.
