Adaptiva’s announcement of its 2025 State of Patch Management report shares research conducted with Demand Metric among more than 250 IT and security professionals.

The findings describe the operational difficulty of keeping systems patched while limiting disruption. According to the announcement, 98% of respondents experienced business disruption during patching, while 94% were automating patch deployment or planned to do so within a year.

The coverage puts automation in the context of an organizational challenge, not simply a software purchase. Coordination, maintenance windows, and deployment processes all influence how quickly teams can act. The report provides a 2025 snapshot of respondents’ practices and priorities, rather than a guarantee that any particular product will eliminate risk.
