Documentation update To provide a better user experience, we have now created a separate documentation space for BMC Helix Automation Console (previously called BMC Helix Vulnerability Management). Users of BMC Helix Automation Console can find the latest documentation at BMC Helix Automation Console..

TrueSight Automation Console 21.02


TrueSight Automation Console integrates with TrueSight Server Automation to identify, analyze, and remediate missing patches, vulnerabilities, and compliance violations in your environment. IT operators and administrators use Automation Console to automate the patch, vulnerability, and compliance management process for Windows and Linux servers. Using Automation Console, operators can create operations for performing jobs in TrueSight Server Automation.

Automation Console also integrates with TrueSight Network Automation to provide some of the vulnerability management capabilities for network devices.
