挑战

Patching and endpoint hardening has become more urgent as new vulnerabilities in commonly used software are announced almost daily. With the shift to a more distributed workforce in the past year, the urgency to keep these remote systems protected is more apparent. Attackers are quick to take advantage of remote devices that now sit outside of the protected corporate perimeter. According to leading industry data, adversaries are weaponizing new critical vulnerabilities in seven days on average. And zero-day vulnerabilities are already weaponized at the moment of disclosure. The easiest way to remediate these vulnerabilities is through patching, so having a solution that can easily identify which machines need the latest patches and then be able to quickly remediate them is essential to protect Ihloom clients. Ihloom customers typically struggle with the ability to keep up with cybersecurity alongside the day-to-day challenges of keeping their systems running. Most customers are overwhelmed and don’t have sufficient information or the skilled staff to process security alerts as needed. These customers are also struggling with misconceptions about the security of their corporate endpoints, where many of their employees may think, “My computer updates (patches) automatically,” or, “Macs don’t have security issues.”

解决方案

Ihloom chose to offer Automox as its patching and endpoint hardening solution because of its small footprint, its ability to easily patch remote workers, and its skill in providing the visibility and swift remediation capabilities that most organizations need to effectively respond to newly reported vulnerabilities. Because Automox is cloud native, Ihloom feels confident that it can effectively patch and update client systems no matter where they are located. Additionally, being a cloud-native solution gives Ihloom customers the agility they need to stand up an endpoint hardening solution without the considerable investment in time or cost of implementing an on-premises solution.
