This episode focuses on patching strategies to keep cloud environments secure and stable. We explain the types of patches—security updates, bug fixes, and feature enhancements—and how to prioritize them based on severity and exposure. Timing is critical, with patch windows scheduled to minimize disruption while addressing vulnerabilities promptly. We also outline methods for patch delivery, from manual updates to automated patch management systems.
We also cover patch testing in staging environments to prevent production issues, as well as rollback procedures for failed updates. In the Cloud+ exam, patching scenarios often test your ability to choose the right balance between security, availability, and operational risk. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com, where you’ll find more cyber prepcasts, books, and information to strengthen your certification path.
