Solution validation

Prior to deployment in production, test the effectiveness of

the patching lower environments, make sure that servers still

run smoothly.

Do the same with any vendor software patches.

Only deploy to production if servers operate as expected after testing.

Monitor production environment closely after deployment to

ensure there are no issues.

Evaluation and Continuous

Improvement

Once the patch for ‘dirty pipe’ is in place, this hole is fixed.

Systems should be tested regularly for weaknesses, and

any weaknesses should be addressed.

Systems should be monitored and updated frequently.

Any irregular traffic or events should be handled swiftly.
