The Readiness “Threatscape” report summarizes your risk of not applying this month’s patches, using all publicly-available vulnerability data.
It’s important to note that it’s equally important to know the risk to your applications if you DO apply this month’s patches. This is of course is dependent on:
Luckily, determining the risk of applying patches is easy (and fast and dynamic, thanks to our Dynamic Platform Assessment tool.
To understand what will happen when you apply this month’s patches, contact us and assess your first 25 applications for free.
For each major platform, the pie chart shows the breakdown of vulnerabilities rated critical, important, moderate and low. These match the tables below the graph.
The size of the pie represents the total number of vulnerabilities. The larger the pie, the more vulnerabilities present.
The position of the pie on the vertical axis represents the relative risk to your application portfolio. The higher the position, the higher the exploitability.
The 99 reported vulnerabilities addressed by Microsoft for this February’s Patch Tuesday are manageable – even with critical browser patches to deal with.
There is an urgent update to Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 and three critical updates to the Windows platform that will require some attention this month. In addition, we have cumulative updates for the .NET and SQL server platforms that will require some testing before general deployment.
Here’s our patch impact assessment for January’s Patch Tuesday.
