Vendors release patches, which are small updates to fix specific vulnerabilities, or service packs, which are larger updates that include multiple patches and other improvements, to address vulnerabilities in their products. The other choices, firewalls and spyware, are not related to fixing vulnerabilities but are security measures to prevent or detect unauthorized access or malicious software.
