However, delaying or deferring the application of patches can be risky. Breaches could result in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ibm.com\/security\/data-breach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">millions of dollars in financial losses<\/a>, not to mention the hefty fines paid to authorities.<\/p>\n<p>Besides data breaches, there\u2019s also the looming threat of ransomware and targeted campaigns abusing unpatched vulnerabilities. And as the COVID-19 pandemic forced organizations to shift to remote work, the need to patch vulnerabilities in technologies used in this setup (such as VPN) is also heightened. In 2020, the VPN flaw <a href=\"http:\/\/cve.mitre.org\/cgi-bin\/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-11510\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CVE-2019-11510<\/a> already had nearly 800,000 detections despite being a relatively new vulnerability.<\/p>\n<p>Trend Micro 2021 Annual Security Roundup: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/tmr\/?\/us\/security\/research-and-analysis\/threat-reports\/roundup\/navigating-new-frontiers-trend-micro-2021-annual-cybersecurity-report?\">Navigating New Frontiers<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"body-subhead-title\">What makes patching a challenge for enterprises?<\/span> Here are some of the challenges that organizations face when implementing a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/tmr\/?\/us\/security\/definition\/Vulnerability\/?\">vulnerability<\/a> and patch management policy:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Business continuity. <span>While regularly installing updates is a good practice, many organizations find the patching process so slow, disruptive, and costly that some opt to postpone it (or do away with it altogether) to avoid operational downtime.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Number of vulnerabilities to patch. <span>This is especially true for organizations that constantly upgrade their IT infrastructures, as they have to patch an increasing number of vulnerabilities. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/tmr\/?\/hk\/security\/research-and-analysis\/threat-reports\/roundup\/navigating-new-frontiers-trend-micro-2021-annual-cybersecurity-report?\">Based on our data<\/a>, which included input from more than 3,500 independent researchers who contribute to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zerodayinitiative.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trend Micro\u2122 Zero Day Initiative\u2122<\/a> (ZDI) program, discovered and reported vulnerabilities increased by 10% in 2021.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Limited visibility. <span>Larger online infrastructures involve more complex update processes. This could be further complicated by a fragmented IT infrastructure, usually composed of different operating system or application versions, that are sometimes also distributed geographically.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Frequency of patch cycles. <span>This can make patching difficult to manage efficiently, especially when it\u2019s hard to determine which vulnerabilities are the most relevant or critical.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Legacy and unpatchable systems. <span>Patches may no longer be issued to systems and applications that have already reached their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/business\/capabilities\/solutions-for\/end-of-support-systems.html\">end of life or support<\/a>, even if they\u2019re still used to run mission-critical operations. Embedded systems, like those in point-of-sale terminals, IoT devices, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/tmr\/?\/us\/security\/definition\/industrial-control-system\/?\">industrial control systems<\/a>, often have software or components that cannot be patched.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"body-subhead-title\">What happens to unpatched business applications and IT infrastructures?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Once a vulnerability is disclosed, reported, or discovered, it is a race against time for enterprises. For cybercriminals and threat actors, it\u2019s an opportunity. An average organization, for instance, reportedly takes around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/organizations-take-an-average-of-60-days-to-patch-critical-risk-vulnerabilities-301496256.html#:~:text=Organizations%20Take%20an%20Average%20of%2060%20Days%20to%20Patch%20Critical%20Risk%20Vulnerabilities,-Edgescan%27s%202022%20Vulnerability\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">60 days<\/a> to patch a critical vulnerability in its application. This window of exposure leaves unpatched systems susceptible to threats.<\/p>\n<p>How does cloud-native virtual patching help?<\/p>\n<p>Virtual patching \u2014 or vulnerability shielding \u2014 acts as a safety measure against threats that exploit known and unknown vulnerabilities. Virtual patching works by implementing layers of security policies and rules that prevent and intercept an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/tmr\/?\/us\/security\/definition\/exploit?\">exploit<\/a> from taking network paths to and from a vulnerability.<\/p>\n<p>A good cloud-native virtual patching solution should be multilayered. This includes capabilities that inspect and block malicious activity from business-critical traffic; detect and prevent intrusions; thwart <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/tmr\/?\/us\/security\/news\/cybercrime-and-digital-threats\/infosec-guide-web-injections?\">attacks on web-facing applications<\/a>; and adaptably protect cloud networks, workloads and containers.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how cloud-native virtual patching augments an organization\u2019s existing security technologies as well as vulnerability and patch management policies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Prevents the risk of a successful breach or attack. <span>Virtual patching keeps your applications protected until a vendor-supplied patch is released or while the patch is being tested and applied.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Buys additional time. <span>Virtual patching gives security teams the time needed to assess the vulnerability and test and apply the necessary and permanent patches. For in-house applications, virtual patching provides time for developers and programmers to fix flaws in their code.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Avoids unnecessary downtime. <span>Virtual patching provides enterprises more freedom to enforce their patch management policies on their own schedule. This mitigates the potential revenue loss caused by unplanned or superfluous disruptions in business operations.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Improves regulatory compliance. <span>Virtual patching helps organizations meet timeliness requirements, such as those imposed by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/vinfo\/tmr\/?\/us\/security\/definition\/eu-general-data-protection-regulation-gdpr\/?\">EU General Data Protection Regulation<\/a> (GDPR) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcisecuritystandards.org\/documents\/PCI_DSS_v3-2-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Payment Card Industry<\/a> (PCI).<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Provides an additional layer of security. <span>Virtual patching provides security controls to components in the IT infrastructures for which patches are no longer issued (e.g., legacy systems and end-of-support OSs like Windows Server 2008) or are prohibitively costly to patch.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Provides flexibility. <span>Virtual patching reduces the need to roll out workarounds or emergency patches. It eases the task, for instance, of gauging specific points in the network that require patching (or if a patch needs to be applied to all systems).<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span class=\"rte-red-bullet\">Customer-wide protection. <span>With cloud-native virtual patching, IT teams don&#8217;t need to worry about maintaining the patching system itself. Cloud-native systems streamline the patching process allowing all their customers to be protected.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trendmicro.com\/en_us\/business\/products\/hybrid-cloud.html\">Trend Micro Cloud One\u2122<\/a> is a security services platform for cloud builders, equipped with the broadest and deepest solutions that are designed to meet cloud security needs both today and in the future.<\/p>\n<p>To secure new and existing workloads, Trend Micro Cloud One\u2122 \u2013 Workload Security provides automated protection against even unknown threats like machine learning and virtual patching.
