As an MSP, you’re not just a tech wizard, you are the guardian of your clients’ data sanctuaries. Where hackers wield virtual swords, third-party software patching is your gleaming armor. Let’s sharpen our swords and dive into why this battle matters.
Why Third-Party Patching?
Third-party patching involves deploying updates to applications not developed by the device or OS manufacturer. These applications — think Adobe Acrobat Reader, Google Chrome, or WinZip — form the backbone of daily business operations. Yet, they’re also prime targets for cybercriminals due to potential vulnerabilities. Recent examples show the importance of third-party patching and why leaving it up to your customers and their users to keep software updated can leave them open to attack.
Legendary Exploits
Your customers rely on business software applications to help them deliver products and services. However, without timely updates, they can become ticking timebomb, as some of these fabled exploits show.
