To ensure patches don’t disrupt business operations, I follow a structured approach: patches are thoroughly tested in a controlled environment to detect compatibility issues, prioritized based on risk, and rolled out gradually with continuous monitoring. I coordinate with stakeholders to schedule deployments during low-impact windows and always have backups and rollback plans ready. Leveraging automated tools ensures efficiency, and post-deployment validation confirms systems function as expected. This proactive and iterative process balances security with operational continuity.
