The increase in cyberattacks on healthcare organizations worldwide has highlighted the importance of cybersecurity measures, including automated Linux patching. Linux-based systems automate the application of security updates to known vulnerabilities. In the healthcare industry, Linux is utilized in various environments like Docker containers, on-premise servers, and cloud platforms. It helps deliver patient care through Electronic Medical Record (EMR) applications and hospital management software. Automated Linux patching reduces the risk of successful cyberattacks, minimizes system downtime, ensures regulatory compliance, operational efficiency, and cost savings.
