"This document provides guidance on best practices when performing patching to your operating systems (OS) and applications. Patching, which includes the actions to test, manage changes, and implement updates and patches, reduces your organization's exposure to threats that could exploit publicly known vulnerabilities and compromise your networks, systems, and IT assets. This guidance is based on the advice in ITSM.10.089 and the security controls listed in Annex 3A of ITSG-33"--Introduction, page 6.
