Windows updates provides drivers in the updates. I was wondering if there is a way to push them with patch management? Is there a way to track them like all the MS and other software updates also? I have been researching this and have found no answer to the positive or negative.

Are others using Altiris to push driver updates for clients besides with imaging?

Hi Shawn, devices drivers are not a part of standard Altiris patch datafeed at the moment.

While there are no immediate plans to extend datafeed with them we plan to check whether it's posslbe to deploy device drivers using our integration with Windows Update (https://knowledge.broadcom.com/external/article/184969/deploying-software-updates-with-windows.html).
