Do you trust automated tools to handle critical software updates for your organization's computer systems?
Splashtop has released Agentic Packr, an AI-driven tool designed to automate the packaging, testing, and deployment of third-party updates for Microsoft Intune. The system aims to eliminate manual bottlenecks that often delay critical software security patches.
Why it matters
Organizations frequently face security risks when known software vulnerabilities remain unpatched while awaiting manual packaging. By automating these processes, the tool helps security teams close exposure windows faster for over 1,000 supported applications.
The system supports over 1,000 third-party applications and generates standard PowerShell App Deployment Toolkit packages. It performs security checks on installers using commercial threat intelligence before reaching Intune.
The players
Splashtop
A provider of remote access and support software that serves millions of computers worldwide.
Microsoft
A global technology company that maintains the Intune and Microsoft Configuration Manager platforms used for enterprise endpoint management.
The details
The software utilizes AI to analyze installers and determine installation parameters, detection rules, and uninstall settings. A rules-based engine provides a secondary fallback, ensuring that any packages failing certification do not reach the production environment.
Timeline
Splashtop launched the Agentic Packr service on October 28, 2026.
The Tech Race
The tool directly addresses the security gap identified by the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue, where the majority of exploits target non-Microsoft third-party software. This marks a shift from manual packaging toward automated, AI-verified security maintenance.
IT administrators can now automate the time-consuming packaging process for over 1,000 applications, reducing the risk of human error during deployment. Pricing for the service starts at $3.00 per endpoint per year, with a free limit available for up to 100 endpoints.
The takeaway
Automating routine software updates is a critical step in reducing the window of opportunity for cyber attackers who exploit known flaws. IT leaders should evaluate whether AI-driven packaging tools can replace legacy manual workflows to improve their overall security posture.
