MBSA and Windows Server Update Services (WSUS)

Your intranet is restricted from accessing the Internet. You implement WSUS in your intranet. You want to identify the computers with missing patches, hotfixes, and service packs. How do you do that?

By default, when you run Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer, it checks your computers against Microsoft Windows Update. You should configure the MBSA to check the vulnerabilities against your WSUS.
