A Venafi report claims that only 3 percent of big companies have fully patched for Heartbleed.

On April 7, the Heartbleed security vulnerability that exposed hundreds of thousands of servers and devices to the risk of exploitation was first publicly disclosed. In the months since, organizations have been able to only partially fix the problem, according to a new study from Venafi.
