Update baselines
An update baseline is a collection of software updates. You can use update baselines as a way
of assessing computers and applications to determine whether or not they are up-to-date.
A computer that has all of the updates that are in an update baseline collection installed is
said to be compliant. A computer that does not have all of the updates that are in an update
baseline collection installed is said to be non-compliant.
