Automated task to deploy Microsoft Security Updates

Hi all,

Can anyone help me with this issue i have.

I have just recently done a penetration test using Nessus on my network and it reported that a lot of my clients in my environments are missing MS updates.
Can anyone tell me if their is a automated task, script or AD that can do this for and is their any instructions on how to do this????

Many thanks

Absolutely WSUS as mentioned, however WSUS does no pushing of updates whatsoever. Clients query WSUS for updates they need(and are approved).
