Episode 108: Patch Management and Configuration Control
Show notes
Unpatched systems are one of the leading causes of successful cyberattacks. In this episode, we explore the role of patch management and configuration control in maintaining secure and reliable systems. We explain how to evaluate patches, schedule deployments, and monitor success. You'll also learn how to track configuration baselines, control changes, and enforce consistent settings across environments. CISSPs must ensure that vulnerabilities are addressed promptly and that unauthorized changes are detected and corrected before they become security issues.
