In this article, we explored 2 methods to achieve this, starting with WSUS.<\/p><p>Using WSUS, we outlined the steps to install and configure the Windows Server Update Service. Additionally, we discussed the steps to configure WSUS post-installation tasks and perform the initial configuration.<\/p><p>We also explained how to create and configure the <a href=\"https:\/\/infrasos.com\/active-directory-reporting\/gpo-reports\/\">GPO<\/a> for managing Windows Servers using Windows Server Updates Services. WSUS provides a centralized approach to patch management, allowing admins to control updates across multiple servers.<\/p><p>Alternatively, Azure Arc offers a cloud-based solution for patch management. We explained how to add on-prem servers to Azure Arc by creating and downloading a script to install the agent.<\/p><p>The article also discussed how to install the Azure Arc agent on Windows Servers. Finally, we explored how to use Azure Arc to download, install and manage updates on the servers once the server is available on its console.<\/p><p>Both options provide valuable tools and processes for keeping your <a href=\"https:\/\/infrasos.com\/windows-server-security-best-practices-secure-your-windows-server-environment\/\">Windows Server environment secure <\/a>and up-to-date. Ultimately, the choice between WSUS and Azure Arc depends on your specific needs and preferences.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7f6213c3 elementor-section-content-middle ot-traditional elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"7f6213c3\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-extended\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3a6b21bb ot-flex-column-vertical\" data-id=\"3a6b21bb\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-526b5c2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"526b5c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"113\" height=\"101\" src=\"https:\/\/infrasos.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/InfraSOS-Logo-Icon-1.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-5788\" alt=\"InfraSOS-AD-Tools\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-600e829f ot-flex-column-vertical\" data-id=\"600e829f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-43a4d152 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"43a4d152\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Try InfraSOS for FREE<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-429eda1c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"429eda1c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Try InfraSOS Active Directory, Azure AD &amp;
