For years, many organizations relied on fixed patching schedules, accepting 60-day, 90-day, or even annual update cycles as "good enough."
That assumption is becoming harder to defend. As AI speeds up vulnerability discovery and attackers move faster, security teams face increasing pressure to prioritize remediation based on active threats and real-time risk rather than maintenance calendars. While scheduled patching still has a place, organizations may need more adaptive processes for critical vulnerabilities.
If attackers can move in hours instead of weeks, how should organizations rethink what "good enough" means for patch management?
