And that distinction is becoming less and less important.
For large companies and networks, I think we're going to see it all fall
under the guise of asset management eventually. Sort of a 'what do we
have, where is it and how secure is it' type of deal.
People that do only patch management are going to come upon harder
times, as will companies that do only vulnerability management. We can
already see the beginning; just look at mergers, acquisitions and
lay-offs in the computer security industry.
(ethical disclaimer: I work for a company in the vulnerability
management space)
