The TuxCare Rebootless Live Patching Process

As soon as a new vulnerability affecting a Linux kernel is announced, the TuxCare
team immediately gets to work on a rebootless patch.

KernelCare Enterprise then deploys each patch in less than a nanosecond:

1

We Create the Patch

We create code that patches insecure kernel code with a secure but functionally equivalent replacement.

2

We Prepare the Patch for
Deployment

We compile every patch that impacts the affected kernel and deploy it to our distribution servers.

3

You Receive the Patch

A KernelCare process running on your server checks our distribution servers every 4 hours. If a new patch is available, it can then be downloaded and applied to your running kernel.

4

KernelCare Applies

the Patch

The KCE kernel module – in a matter of nanoseconds – loads the updated binary into the secure kernel space and redirects all functions to the updated code – and the kernel resumes.

Because this happens in nanoseconds, no processes are
interrupted, and no failover condition is ever triggered
