All logs are fed in to our SIEM solution so we have real time tracking of security incidents. All machines contain an agent to track software versions which are checked against CVE's as published by NVD and other sources such as OS security feeds. Upon detection of a vulnerability, we immediately move to patch the issue and aim to resolve any vulnerability within 48 hours.
