ESET, a global leader in cybersecurity solutions, today announces the release of an update to its ESET Vulnerability and Patch Management (V&PM) module. For organizations, they must minimize their attack surface. With thousands of vulnerabilities being discovered every quarter, the threat landscape is in constant flux. A single vulnerability can bring a business, nay, a whole supply chain to a standstill. To prevent such an eventuality, vulnerability, and patch management is an excellent tool, providing great cyber hygiene while helping build a proactive security posture, preventing incidents from taking place.ESET understands all too well that threat actors continuously target an increasingly broad spectrum of devices, systems, and software. With our new update, ESET V&PM has expanded to support Linux (desktops and servers), as well as macOS, covering broader parts of a business ecosystem. To support such a comprehensive endeavor, the V&PM module is now also presented in a new dashboard, improved for greater visibility and transparency, enhancing its ease of use while giving an instant overview of vulnerability and patching status across a network. At the same time, due to ESET V&PM's deep embedding inside the ESET Protect Platform, it now also supports on-demand vulnerability scanning, enabling instant insight into the status of specific machines.While as a default, vulnerability scanning is fully automated to save you time and close the attack gap against threat actors, for Windows and Linux servers, the product gives manual control to its administrators. This is especially useful in helping security admins have more oversight over their scanning and patching processes, so that they don't interrupt business workflows. 'We believe that top-level security shouldn't require needless complexity, as it only makes security workflows too time-consuming, which could be better spent on other important tasks. With this new update to our ESET V&PM module, we take all of this into consideration, focusing on what matters – speed, ease of use, compliance, and proactive prevention. Threats don't sleep and with the always-on function, neither does our solution, keeping a constant eye on your business' security,' said Michal Jankech, vice president of Enterprise and SMB/MSP at ESET. ESET's Vulnerability & Patch Management is available in the following solutions: ESET Protect Complete, ESET Protect Elite, ESET Protect MDR, and ESET Protect MDR Ultimate. With the latest update, customers can order ESET V&PM as an add-on to ESET Protect Entry and ESET ProtectAdvanced subscription as well, upping business security from the smallest player to the largest. As always, the current update will be rolled out automatically without any additional costs.For more information about ESET Vulnerability and Patch Management, please visit its product page here.To understand why patch management should be a necessary component of business security strategy, read our blog here.
