Services are delivered to approximately 28000 NICS staff and customers located across Northern Ireland. One of the services is the supply, management and security of client desktop/laptops for customers to use for the execution of their business. IT Assist currently use Microsoft SCCM 2019 for the management and security patching of all client desktop and laptops. SCCM is used to scan and apply the required patches for all Microsoft products on the clients and a small number of 3rd party products security patches are applied for example Adobe. For the 3rd party applications a SCCM package has to be developed each time containing the latest patch and pushed out to every desktop.
