What is automated cyber hygiene?
Automated cyber hygiene is the practice of updating Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems or third-party applications, such as Adobe, Firefox, or Chrome - via an automated scanning and remediation tool like Automox. By performing these checks and updates daily, endpoints are continuously protected from risk exposure.
Defining policies to enforce compliance with the latest OS and third-party software updates and configuration controls improves operational efficiency, buying back time and providing confidence that all critical vulnerabilities have been patched across every endpoint.
