Summary: Microsoft released its monthly security update on Tuesday, disclosing more than 60 vulnerabilities across its services and software, the Chakra Scripting Engine, the Windows operating system and SharePoint.

Key Takeaway: More than 60 vulnerabilities in Microsoft products, including the Windows operating system and SharePoint, means patching this month is not a routine checkbox for any organization running that stack.
