Krebs says Microsoft fixed at least 398 flaws, including one exploited, as AI swells Patch Tuesday
The August batch is less a freak event than a preview of vulnerability discovery moving faster than patch operations.
- Prioritize the actively exploited Microsoft flaw first, then critical issues on exposed or high value systems.
- Treat larger Patch Tuesdays as a workflow problem, not a one month anomaly.
- Improve asset inventory and staged rollout plans before AI aided discovery makes backlogs larger.
