It snowed in Austin, Texas last night. It\u2019s not a big deal for those of you who live in areas where you\u2019re used to snow, but for those of us who are native Texans, it\u2019s a big deal. Funny enough, I had scheduled a maintenance appointment for later today to make sure our heater is in working order. I\u2019m thankful that the heater was working last night, but what if it wasn\u2019t? No one likes to be dealing with an emergency house issue in the middle of the night, and if you\u2019re in cyber security, I know you don\u2019t like dealing with a security issue that\u2019s impacting your network and your sleep schedule. Everyone knows that they need to make sure their systems are patched in a timely manner, but it can be a complicated process for those in larger organizations. And if the predictions come true, 2018 is going to put a big spotlight on patch management.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Trend Micro published their annual security predictions report for 2018. Covering eight areas, the predictions highlight a wide range of issues \u2013 with the underlying theme that 2018\u2019s biggest attacks will originate from known vulnerabilities<\/u>. We saw a number of big threats this year that had known vulnerabilities behind them: WannaCry, SMB vulnerabilities \u2013 just to name a few. With shortages in security staffing and complicated networks to deal with, patching systems in a timely manner can tend to fall by the wayside, and attackers will look to take advantage of that fact in the coming year.
