April Patch Tuesday is largest in nearly 18 months

This April, Microsoft's Patch Tuesday came with 128 vulnerability patches the largest number of fixes seen in the monthly event since September of 2020.

Two of the patches address zero-day vulnerabilities that were already widely known. Ten are considered "critical", and 115 are considered "important". The two zero-day vulnerabilities are both related to escalation of privilege, giving attackers with basic access the potential ability to elevate their privileges to those of an administrator.

Patch management is simple with Acronis Cyber Protect. Simply select the patches to install, and update all your protected systems remotely from a single web console.
