Why Microsoft Launches All Months Security Patches and Updates
?
Hello,
As is well known to most users of Microsoft systems, every second Tuesday of each monthMicrosoft releasespatches forsecurity ,critical updates, etc.. But is that everybody understands, because Microsoft releases monthly security patches?
Unfortunately many companies take days or even months to apply patches that fix thevulnerability's found. Usually, thevulnerabilities allow a remote attacker to execute code and gain complete control of the system with administrative permissions.
BecauseWindows andInternet Explorer are one of the most used systems on the planet, attackers do not think twice to create an exploit to exploit a vulnerability present in the system before applying the patch.
Once upon a time a friend asked me the following question:
Why Microsoft releases monthly security patches and updates?
My answer was:
Microsoft is committed to protect customers from security vulnerabilities. As part of this effort, Microsoft releases monthly updates for fixes of vulnerabilities found.
And I did the following question to him?
And the other operating system vendors do not release patches to fix vulnerabilities found?Or will the other software are no vulnerabilities?
Microsoft has done their part to fix the vulnerabilities found internally and publicly.
Now we need you.
Be aware and applysecurity patches for your environment before it is attacked, because after an attack you may not get a second change.
