Patch & Vulnerability Management
Governance framework defining roles and decision criteria for patching and vulnerabilities.
Overview
Many teams receive vulnerability findings without clear ownership, consistent risk thresholds or lifecycle decision rules. That produces varied prioritisation, delayed fixes and weak compliance evidence.
Patch & Vulnerability Management produces a documented governance framework that assigns accountable roles, defines risk-based prioritisation and remediation decision criteria, and specifies change controls, reporting and audit evidence; it governs identification, prioritisation and patch lifecycle decisions while excluding hands-on deployment, operational scanning, procurement and unrelated IT or security domains.
