ABSTRACT

In this paper, we propose an efficient and procedural software patch management phases. Every year, organizations have tens of thousands of known vulnerabilities and spend tens of thousands of hours and millions of dollars or more patching them. Despite these efforts, research has shown that the time it takes for an exploit to appear for a given patched vulnerability is shortening. As various types of organizations such as companies and universities manage patches in inconsistent ways, problems such as security problems, system instability, information leakage and work delay due to patches occur. In this paper, we look at the basics required for software patch management and define the factors to be considered for patch management and the effective steps for patch management. Therefore, this study will be used as a method to efficiently and procedurally execute the organization's patch management policy in the process of updating and patching the software in the organization to a new version as a solution to software function modification and security vulnerability.
