Future Trends in Vulnerability: Lessons Learned from 2021’s Top 3 CVEs - PDF document

Future Trends in VulnerMbility: Iessons IeMrned from 2021’s Top 3 CVEs High - profile attacks made their way onto front - page headlines over and over again in 2021 with an increase in nation - state threats, governments proactively shutting down online services to prevent attacks, infrastructure attacks, and more. And this is on top of the background noise of new vulnerabilities, zero - days, and rising ransomware costs. Giving up obviously isn’t the answer. And in fact, there’s a lot you can do to protect your organization. Predictions for 2022 and Beyond Physical supply chains are more interconnected than ever with critical business information systems, so it’s essential to get a handle on your environment and keep yourself safe. Attackers will continue to take advantage of older vulnerabilities (“low - hanging fruit”) as well as newer devices coming on line through OT, IoT, and more. SECURITY TAKEAWAY: Guard Your Entire Environment With the growth of IoT and distributed networks, it’s no longer sufficien t to patrol the edge of your network. Don’t wait to see how well - defended your software supply chains are (or your vendors’). Take the time to protect your entire environment, including legacy systems, to cut the risk that you’ll be affected by the next bi g headline. SECURITY TAKEAWAY: Shorten Time to Remediation Most vendors don’t rely exclusively on their bug bounty programs and stay on top of vulnerabilities in multiple ways. They are also generally very quick to release fixes. In fact, most organizat ions’ security suffers from a different problem entirely: A patch has already been released, but they haven’t had the time and resources to remediate the vulnerability yet across all their systems. By implementing a platform with predictive patching and au tomation, you’ll be able to shorten time to remediation and keep your org safe against emerging threats. JetPatch Keeps You Safe The vulnerability landscape is constantly changing, but looki ng again at the CISA report , the top recommendation to stay ahead of emerging vulnerabilities is “implementing a centralized patch management system.” While there are still zero - days from time to time, studies show that many attackers are continuing to ex ploit old vulnerabilities. That’s why, more than ever in 2022, you need a centralized way to manage all your patching. JetPatch is a single solution that gives you:  A single, clear console view into all your endpoints , across your entire environment  The latest updates, classified according to their relevance and priority for your business  Smarter, simpler remediation with automation and predictive patching Bring down your total time to remediation and stay ahead of all the emerging security trends. JetPatch is simply the best way to ensure business continuity in the changing world of vulnerability and cyber risk management.
