Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Having an accurate inventory of all hardware and software on computers that need the patch is necessary to ensure that the patch is deployed to every system that requires it. This information helps in identifying the computers that need the patch and deploying it efficiently. It also reduces the risk of errors, such as deploying the patch to an incorrect system, and ensures that the patch does not cause conflicts with existing software or hardware. Automated patch installation software (A) can streamline the process, but it still requires an accurate inventory to ensure that the correct software is installed on the correct device. External patch management hardware (C) is not necessary and launching the deployment on all the computers at the same time (D) can lead to network congestion and may not account for potential issues or conflicts with the patch.
