Endpoint Central supports Linux patches within 24 hours of their release. According to your enterprise's patching practices, you can deploy them either manually or using any automate patch deployment tasks.
To deploy Linux patches using manual deployment, Under Missing Patches tab, search and filter the required Linux patches. Select those patches and choose other configurations. To learn more about how to manually deploy patches, refer to this page.
You can automate the patching of Linux computers by creating an Automate Patch Deployment task.
When you are creating an Automate Patch Deployment (APD) task, choose Linux as the operating system after you click on Automate Task.
By doing this, you will be redirected to the Select Applications window, where you have to choose the Linux Applications for which you wish to automate the patching process based on their updates and severities, as shown in the image below. After that, configure the other settings, select the necessary Linux machines as targets in the Define Targets section. To learn in detail about creating Automate Patch Deployment tasks, refer to this page.
