Free CompTIA CySA+ CS0-003 Practice Question
You are preparing a vulnerability management report and must communicate the impact of remediating a newly discovered vulnerability that affects multiple critical systems. Remediation efforts could result in a temporary degradation of functionality for these systems. Which approach would be MOST effective for prioritizing the remediation actions without adversely impacting business operations?
Force immediate but temporary updates on all systems simultaneously to ensure no system remains vulnerable, accepting the risk of degrading functionality.
Delay all system updates until a comprehensive evaluation of the long-term impact on each system can be completed.
Implement a staged rollout, beginning with less critical systems to monitor for functional degradation and incrementally advance to more critical systems.
Patch low-impact and non-critical systems first to minimize business operation disruptions, while deferring updates on critical systems indefinitely.
