Today is Microsoft's March 2020 Patch Tuesday and is always stressful for your Windows administrators, so be especially nice to them today.

With the release of the March 2020 security updates, Microsoft has released fixes for 115 vulnerabilities in Microsoft products. Of these vulnerabilities, 24 are classified as Critical, 88 as Important, and 3 as Moderate.

Users should install these security updates as soon as possible to protect Windows from known security risks.
