The NCSC published a patch wave warning on 1 May. They are telling UK organisations to prepare for AI-driven vulnerability discovery at a speed traditional patching cannot keep up with. What this means practically: → Your unpatched systems are now higher risk than they were 12 months ago → ISO 27001 Annex A.12.6 requires a formal vulnerability management process → Cyber Essentials v3.2 requires automatic updates to be enabled This is exactly what our Cyber Threat and Vulnerability Management module covers identifying threats, prioritising vulnerabilities and applying the right controls before something goes wrong. Relevant for anyone in IT management, GRC or working towards CISSP. Two things worth doing this week if you have not already: → Enable automatic updates across all devices → Document your current patch process — even one page counts What are you doing about patch management right now?
