KEY BENEFITS of KernelCare
It comes from CloudLinux Inc., creators of the #1 Linux OS for web hosting. KernelCare improves your systems’ stability and security, bringing more customer satisfaction and lower operational cost. Trusted by over 1500 companies of all sizes, KernelCare keeps your Linux kernels up to date, automatically. Security patches are installed on running systems without rebooting. These ‘rebootless’ updates take nanoseconds. System performance is not affected.
Now you can deliver a better, more secure Linux platform.

KernelCare is for businesses that care about security
KernelCare works fast, before any vulnerabilities can be exploited
to attack your server. It was the only multi-distribution Linux live
patching service to fix Meltdown and Spectre (spectre-v1)
vulnerabilities without the need to reboot servers.
There are no service interruptions; KernelCare fixes only the
affected part of the kernel code — there is no need to reboot.
KernelCare keeps your kernel secure with automated and rebootless updates.
1Linux is stable, but as with other operating systems, security
issues are common. More than 450 Linux vulnerabilities were
found in 2017, up from over 200 a year before. Vulnerabilities
expose servers to malicious intent by threat actors on multiple
attack vectors. On open source environments, kernel
vulnerabilities become public almost immediately. They should
be fixed (or patched) before they can be exploited.
Eliminate Linux Vulnerabilities
*Details here
KernelCare patches kernels without causing downtime
or interrupting service.
Your uptime statistics are improved. Once installed,
KernelCare checks for new patches every four hours. It
downloads and applies them automatically. You don't
need to check for updates or install them yourself —
KernelCare takes care of everything. Your servers are
always running with the latest kernel security patches.
2Launched in 2014, KernelCare now runs
on over 300,000 servers.

Applications
Patch Automation for the Enterprise
KernelCare works on most mainstream distributions of Linux and
virtual environments.
If needed, complex and custom kernel patch configurations can be
maintained and applied with the KernelCare ePortal. This means you
can update development and production environments with one
patch repository. When active, there is no impact on server
performance. It is fast and simple to run.
For servers behind firewalls or with limited internet access, the
KernelCare ePortal lets you run your own patch repository server.
Patches are automatically downloaded from the central KernelCare
repository to your own local ePortal server.

Secure Servers are Compliant Servers
KernelCare ensures that your Linux servers are compliant with best-practices.
Clauses in many SLA contracts define a maximum period that servers may
remain unpatched. Exceeding this time frame can lead to violation of the
contract. Kernel updates are therefore extremely important for the security and
compliance of your Linux systems and should be done at least once a month.
All patch corrections are fully auditable, and the patches can be selectively pre-
tested and approved before distribution. If you want to roll them back, you can
do so at any time with no impact.
The KernelCare team also runs hundreds of regression tests to ensure kernel
patches are always of the highest quality.

KernelCare is the most cost-effective live kernel patching
solution on the market.
It lets you release IT resources to work on strategic
initiatives, rather than patching and maintaining servers. It
helps you avoid system downtime. It removes the need for
complex plans and schedules covering dispersed business
units. There is no longer need for routine security patch
management. As a result, you lower your operating costs.
5Lower Cost of Operation
