Impact of OS Patch Management on Cybersecurity Risk Reduction

Abstract

Most of us try to train our body, eat directly, wash our hands and hold our hands healthy - habits that prevent viruses and diseases from going beyond our immune system. A well lap management program works in a similar way. Lapping reduces the number of vectors in the attack that can compromise infrastructure and data, effectively keep the digital environment of an organization healthy. Cyber-attacks in headings are almost daily, and unpublished weaknesses are still a great risk. In 2024, unexpected software was used in about 25% of reported violations. In addition, the use of weaknesses as a vector of primary attacks on time -time increased by more than 180%, revealing the growing press with timely patching.
