Product

Add-on module that identifies, prioritises and deploys patches for operating systems and third-party applications on Windows, macOS and Linux workstations and servers. Sold previously as Panda Patch Management. With visibility into asset vulnerability inventory, missing security patches, service packs, and non-security related patches, WatchGuard Patch Management improves security and helps satisfy regulatory requirements. Paired with WatchGuard Endpoint Security, the module helps reduce vulnerability exposure and maintain consistent security across distributed environments. Identify missing patches, assess vulnerable assets, and prioritize updates based on risk to reduce your attack surface. It is delivered as a hosted SaaS service.

Vendor

WatchGuard has sold network security appliances from Seattle since 1996, and sells them almost entirely through managed service providers rather than direct — around 25,000 of them, with partners in 179 countries and roughly 1,250 staff. It is privately held, owned by the investment firm Vector Capital. The firewall is the core product: WatchGuard Firebox, a line of appliances from small-office boxes to rack-mounted units, managed from WatchGuard Cloud, with WatchGuard AuthPoint for multi-factor authentication beside it. Endpoint security is a more recent and acquired business. WatchGuard bought Panda Security in 2020, and the products it sells today under the names WatchGuard EDR, WatchGuard EPDR and WatchGuard Endpoint Security 360 descend from Panda's endpoint technology. Both brands appear in this index, and their laboratory results come from the same underlying engine — worth knowing before reading a WatchGuard score and a Panda score as independent evidence.
