The field of information protection is constantly in development, which means that there are always new developments to strengthen security measures. Therefore, it is important to monitor not only technological, but also software updates. In older versions, there are regularly errors and vulnerabilities that cybercriminals use if the program has not been updated.
To significantly reduce the risk in the event that a new update stops the company’s business processes, it is necessary to implement the Patch Management solution. This is the process of managing software updates to fix detected defects or change its functionality. In other words, it is the installation of updates with the obligatory testing of them before deployment throughout the enterprise.
Benefits:
- Centralized visibility of security status of software vulnerabilities, missing patches, updates and unsupported software
- Reducing risks to prevent, deter and reduce the surface of attack
