Fact.MR has recently published a report on patch management for the forecast period of 2022-2032. According to the study, the market will hit US$ 2 Billion in 2032, increasing at a staggering rate of 9.4% over the next decade. A never-ending arms race between software companies today is to provide users with the best applications available on the market. As a result, they spend a lot of resources developing improved versions of the software they already have. A majority of IT corporations use a Software as a Service (SaaS) model which charges a flat fee for updated versions of their products.
To ensure high standards of cyber security, the government has published several mandatory laws in the market. Patching can assist the organization in meeting regulatory compliance and safety standards. Testing patches before deployment can prevent conflicts between the patch and software, and negatively affect IT infrastructure.
By addressing multiple kinds of vulnerabilities in a company’s systems and software, patch management can dramatically improve security issues in any application. Missing patches can have serious security consequences within an organization. Updating security software protects the organization from issues such as data loss, identity theft, and software damage. The installation of appropriate patches can handle most of these problems and allow employees to perform their duties uninterrupted, resulting in improved productivity for the company.
