Don’t Forget August Patch Day – Daily Security Byte

August 15, 2017 By Corey Nachreiner

Last week, I couldn’t make many videos due to travel and offsite business meetings. One of the topics I missed was Microsoft and Adobe’s monthly Patch Day, which falls on the second Tuesday of every month. Hopefully, you’ve already fallen into a regular cadence of patching each month after Microsoft and Adobe release their cyclical security updates. However, if you haven’t updated yet, let this video serve as a quick reminder. Watch the video below for a quick summary of last week’s Patch Day and install the critical updates as soon as you can.
