Well, it's a small footprint .... The less there that can be exploited the more secure it (can be) is.

Have a question on vmware update manager.<br />
Installed updatedmanger and configured to download.<br />
Noticed that the baseline and groups tab has <br />
Critical host patches(predefined)<br />
Non-Critical Host Patches (predefined)<br />
I am only interested on security updates so I created a dynamic baseline just for the security updates and attached that to all of our esxi hosts, I scanned and remediated it All went ok first time.<br />
How do I check whether there is any new security updates available and if there is any new how to apply them ?

VMware, a software company founded in 1998,  was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies.

VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture.  Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
