Patching Policy

Prompt and complete patching of systems is critical to defending against attacks. The vast majority of cyber-attacks target systems that have known vulnerabilities and haven’t been patched. Your laptop, your personal cell phone, and the company servers must all be patched against the latest security vulnerabilities in order to protect data, systems, and networks.
