3rd Party patches normally come out earlier cause these security companies are paid to look for vulnerabilites. And they wont release the vulnerability until they themselves have a fix.

M$ takes a while longer cause they dont just have to make a patch, they have to test it on every version of windows (10+ currently).

I wont be deploying it until Saturday evening using SMS on our production servers.
