Security News > 2022 > March > Why Enterprise Threat Mitigation Requires Automated, Single-Purpose Tools

As much as threat mitigation is to a degree a specialist task involving cybersecurity experts, the day to day of threat mitigation often still comes down to systems administrators.

In this article, we outline the difficulties implied by enterprise threat mitigation, and explain why automated, purpose-built mitigation tools are the way forward.

Patching is particularly tough given the fact that applying a patch implies restarting the underlying service.

Patching can, and should, be automated.

Patching is one of those security tasks that need a dedicated tool that can help sysadmins by patching consistently and with minimal disruption.

A perfect fit for these requirements is live patching through tools like TuxCare's KernelCare Enterprise tool which delivers automatic, non-disruptive, live patching for Linux distributions.
