0patch is a security solution that delivers in-memory micropatches for software vulnerabilities, including zero-day exploits, actively exploited flaws, and issues lacking official vendor patches. The patches are applied without altering executable files, eliminating the need for system reboots or full updates. It provides security for various software, including Windows operating systems, Microsoft Office, and third-party applications, and is used to extend the operational security of systems that have reached end-of-support (EOS) or end-of-security-update (ESU) status.
The platform operates using the 0patch Agent on endpoints, which is managed through a cloud-based administrative console called 0patch Central. This centralized system allows administrators to monitor and manage deployed agents, organize endpoints into hierarchical groups with custom patching policies, and facilitate staged deployments. The architecture supports the mass deployment of agents across a network and the application of custom patches to address organization-specific requirements.
