Windows Security patching and mandatory restarts
The Microsoft Windows Server Update Service (WSUS) is a tool for managing and distributing
critical security patches to all Windows computers joined to our Active Directory (AD)
infrastructure.
UNSW Canberra ICTS enforces the installation of critical security updates via WSUS to all
Windows computers registered in AD. The updates will be applied on the second Friday of every
month at 2am. To ensure the updates have been successfully applied, each computer will
automatically restart at the completion of the patching process.
Enforcing a patch management policy is a key component in protecting your data and ensuring our
desktop operating environment stays secure and up-to-date.
