Description
The organization (including any contractor to the organization) shall promptly install security-relevant software updates (e.g., patches, service packs, and hot fixes). Flaws discovered during security assessments, continuous monitoring, incident response activities, or information system error handling, shall also be addressed expeditiously. Due to information system integrity and availability concerns, organizations shall give careful consideration to the methodology used to carry out automatic updates. Rationale for non-applicability: Automated updates of mobile application software is an MDM function and is therefore outside the scope of this SRG.
