🔐 Cybersecurity · Cloud Hardening

Run a patch cadence that actually closes windows

Triage vulnerabilities by exploitability and ship patches within defined SLAs.

intermediate~30 minSecurity EngineersAppSecDevSecOps

Steps

  1. 1Aggregate findings from scanners, dependabots, and CISA feeds weekly
  2. 2Classify by exploitability × exposure; internet-facing criticals patch in 72h
  3. 3Automate dependency bumps with test-gated PRs
  4. 4Maintain golden base images patched monthly
  5. 5Track mean-time-to-patch per severity; report trend to leadership
  6. 6Keep an exception register with expiries, not permanent waivers

Common Pitfalls

  • ▲Scanner noise drowning real risk; tune detections
  • ▲Patching libraries while base images rot
