In a galaxy not so far away, IT and security teams fight a relentless battle…
For many organizations, patching feels like an endless game of whack-a-mole. New vulnerabilities pop up faster than teams can react, stretching resources thin and leaving critical systems exposed. No matter how many get patched, there’s always another mole—er, vulnerability—poking its head up.

At Adaptiva, we call this ongoing struggle "Patch Wars."
Patch Wars Are Real
Just like in Star Wars, there are forces of good (security and IT teams) fighting a constant battle against an ever-evolving enemy (vulnerabilities, exploits, and misconfigurations). The traditional approach to patching has been reactive, manual, and repetitive—hitting issues as they appear, only to have new ones surface moments later.
At recent conferences, we brought this metaphor to life with our Patch Wars Whack-a-Mole machine—a crowd favorite that turned a common pain point into an interactive experience. While fun, it served as a vivid reminder of how exhausting patching can be when you're always on defense.
