What is patch management?

Patch management is the process of acquiring, testing and deploying updates to software and systems to fix vulnerabilities, improve performance and maintain compliance. It includes operating systems, applications, firmware and network devices.

Timely patching reduces exposure to zero‑day exploits and known vulnerabilities, improves system reliability and supports regulatory compliance. Neglecting patches can lead to breaches, downtime and increased remediation costs.

Apply security patches as soon as vendors release them, prioritising critical updates. Many organisations follow monthly patch cycles, with emergency updates for severe vulnerabilities.

Challenges include patching legacy systems, coordinating downtime, testing for compatibility and managing patch deployment across distributed environments. Automation and centralised management tools help overcome these issues.

Many regulations require timely updates to address known vulnerabilities. Documenting patch processes and maintaining auditable records demonstrate due diligence and help meet standards like ISO 27001 and GDPR.
