Understanding Cloud-Based Patch Management Strategies Beyond WSUS

Webinar Announcement: Transitioning from WSUS to Cloud-Based Patch Management

On August 20, 2025, Techvan Inc., in collaboration with SB C&S Co., Ltd., will host a noteworthy webinar titled "Transitioning from WSUS: Cloud Era Patch Management Strategies." This event aims to address the challenges and strategies related to the end of Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), a long-standing tool for corporate patch management.

Overview of the Seminar

Over the years, WSUS has been a reliable backbone for organizations managing software updates. However, with the increasing trend of cloud adoption, Microsoft announced the discontinuation of WSUS, effective in 2024. This impending transition has left many IT administrators questioning how to adapt. The webinar will provide essential insights into shifting to a cloud-based patch management framework.

Participants will benefit from exploring modern tools such as Microsoft Intune and Windows Autopatch, which can significantly enhance security, operational efficiency, and automation within their organizations.

Key Topics That Will Be Covered:

1. Announcement of WSUS Discontinuation and Alternatives
Microsoft’s formal announcement of WSUS's retirement in September 2024 has raised many questions. Our webinar will delve into the details of this announcement and clarify any subsequent changes in messaging. We will also guide participants on necessary actions that need to be taken as WSUS is phased out, ensuring that organizations remain compliant and secure.

2. Introduction to Microsoft Intune & Windows Autopatch
Microsoft Intune and Windows Autopatch are emerging as formidable alternatives to WSUS in the realm of cloud-based patch management. This segment of the webinar will clearly outline the core functionalities and capabilities of both tools. Attendees will learn how these solutions can streamline patch management processes through automation, enhance operational efficiency, and fortify security measures.

3. Exploring Azure Update Manager
Azure Update Manager is gaining traction as a new option for patch management in cloud-native environments. During this session, we will not only present an overview of Azure Update Manager's fundamental features but also demonstrate real-world configuration methods. Participants can expect practical insights into how to leverage this tool effectively.
