As the number of software vulnerabilities continues to increase, delaying or skipping security updates could cost your business dearly.
14 Oct 2025
Last year set a new record for newly-disclosed software vulnerabilities, with the total tally at around 40,000, an increase of some 30 percent from the year before. As 2025 is on track to set another record all while attackers increasingly exploit vulnerabilities to compromise organizations, a failure to patch your software on time is like an invitation for threat actors to waltz into your network.
October marks Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a timely opportunity for IT leaders to pause and reflect on how they can better protect their computer systems. Watch the video with ESET Chief Security Evangelist Tony Anscombe to learn more about the importance of timely vulnerability patching.
Also, stay tuned for more videos marking Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a campaign celebrated annually in many parts of the world, including in the US, Canada, Australia and across Europe. In the meantime, why not learn about ESET's cybersecurity awareness training?
