What is Third-Party Patching?
Third-party patch management is a process of addressing vulnerabilities in outdated third-party applications, such as Google Chrome, Adobe, Java, Firefox, Zoom, and more. Ignoring third-party patching and doing only OS updates can lead to vulnerability exploitation and ransomware incidents. While many patch management solutions and RMMs support patch management for OS updates, third-party application patching is a key component that is commonly neglected by most.
