Method and system for performing dynamic patch management in a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) platform

A patch managing system for performing dynamic patch management in a Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) platform, the patch managing system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, wherein the memory stores the processor-executable instructions, which, on execution, causes the processor to:
• retrieve operational data from one or more first data sources and vulnerability remediation data from one or more second data sources, wherein the operational data and the vulnerability remediation data are related to at least one of, one or more Information Technology (IT) services and one or more infrastructures of a VDI platform;
• detect a gap in patching level based on the operational data, the vulnerability remediation data and a corresponding industrial standard, wherein one or more patches are rolled out for patching at least one of, the one or more IT services and the one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform based on the detected gap in the patching level;
• record dynamic values of one or more prediction parameters based on real-time monitoring of at least one of:
• one or more Information Technology (IT) services or one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform;
• obtain a predefined weightage associated with each of a plurality of layers at which the dynamic values of the one or more prediction parameters are recorded;
• determine a cumulative score by correlating the predefined weightages assigned to each prediction parameter based on the dynamic values, and the weightage assigned to the layer from which the dynamic values of the one or more prediction parameters are recorded;
• determine a patch prediction score based on the cumulative score, wherein the patch prediction score facilitates in identifying a probability of rolling back the one or more patches rolled out for patching at least one of, the one or more IT services and the one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform;
• and
• execute a plan to optimally patch the one or more patches to at least one of, the one or more IT services and the one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform, based on one or more patching rules, wherein the plan is generated based on the patch prediction score.

A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions stored thereon that when processed by at least one processor causes the patch managing system to perform operations comprising:

• retrieving operational data from one or more first data sources and vulnerability remediation data from one or more second data sources, wherein the operational data and the vulnerability remediation data are related to at least one of, one or more Information Technology (IT) services and one or more infrastructures of a VDI platform;
• detecting a gap in patching level based on the operational data, the vulnerability remediation data and a corresponding industrial standard, wherein one or more patches are rolled out for patching at least one of, the one or more IT services and the one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform based on the detected gap in the patching level;
• recording dynamic values of one or more prediction parameters based on real-time monitoring of at least one of:
• one or more Information Technology (IT) services or one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform;
• obtaining a predefined weightage associated with each of a plurality of layers at which the dynamic values of the one or more prediction parameters are recorded;
• determining a cumulative score by correlating the predefined weightages assigned to each prediction parameter based on the dynamic values, and the weightage assigned to the layer from which the dynamic values of the one or more prediction parameters are recorded;
• determining a patch prediction score based on the cumulative score, wherein the patch prediction score facilitates in identifying a probability of rolling back the one or more patches rolled out for patching at least one of, the one or more IT services and the one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform;
• and
• executing a plan to optimally patch the one or more patches to at least one of, the one or more IT services and the one or more infrastructures of the VDI platform, based on one or more patching rules, wherein the plan is generated based on the patch prediction score.
