Vulnerability and patch management
Keep known vulnerabilities out of your IT infrastructure


Rebuilding and repairing software can be a laborious task, causing delays for IT teams - trying to ensure all systems have the patches they need - as well as users, who can be disrupted by computer restarts.
With just over 18k vulnerabilities reported in 2020, it’s clear that many organisations don’t have the right protection in place to support their infrastructure due to a lack of resources. Yet, patching remains a critical part of protecting vulnerable networks from security threats.
Download this white paper to learn how patch management can be the most effective tool to protect your business from vulnerabilities, and how WatchGuard Patch Management can help you to simplify vulnerability management by streamlining the update and security patch process.
