- Apply non-security patches to infrastructure systems.
- Apply Application patches to: Nagios, Jenkins, AWX, etc.
The following items are stored in GitHub.
- Source code, System deployment scripts (Ansible), Instructions/How to Information
| Description | Storage Location | Frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Jenkins (ci) - Configuration and Settings | localhost /mnt/backup-server/jenkins_backup |
Daily |
| Jenkins (ci-jck) - Configuration and Settings | localhost /mnt/backup/ |
Daily |
| Nagios - Configuration and Settings | localhost /root/backups |
Weekly |
| AWX - Configuration and Settings | not currently backed up | N/A |
Backup schedule:
- How often should be backup?
- Where should it be stored?
Backup retention:
- How long should be keep it?
- How many copies?
Most of our systems are internet facing and we need to stay vigilant of the potential security risks this presents.
| Vulnerability Type | Time Frame |
|---|---|
| Critical severity | 72 hours or less |
| High severity | 7 days |
| Moderate and low severity | 60 days |
- Nagios is configured to monitor each system and report on the status of OS patches required.
- Non-infrastructure systems are configured to automatically apply all patches. (Sundays at 5am local host time)
- Infrastructure systems are configured to automatically apply security patches only. (Sundays at 5am local host time) This information is logged on the localhost: /var/log/apt-security-updates
- During our quarterly maintenance window application patches will be applied manually.
- When a critical or high severity vulnerability is announced patching will take place within the time frame stated above.
