Patch Management

Security measures are never foolproof. No matter how many precautions companies and users take, threat actors always find a new point of entry to exploit. Identifying and fixing vulnerabilities requires time, and there lies one of the greatest challenges — deploying sound fixes within a tight time constraint.

Cybersecurity threats are constantly escalating and the current landscape means the majority of successful cyber attacks exploit well-known vulnerabilities that can lead to system breaches and loss of sensitive information.  The time between discovery of a system vulnerability and the start of malicious exploits is getting shorter, often a matter of hours before attempted attacks. Increasingly complex enterprise networks, use of bring your own device (BYOD) and other protocols for higher productivity, and the broader array of applications and devices leveraged for business use also provide a larger target for compromise.
