Setting Up a Regular Security Patch Schedule

Applying security patches inconsistently — sometimes immediately, sometimes months late — leaves gaps that a predictable schedule closes.

Weekly Checks Are a Reasonable Baseline

A weekly review of available security updates across your CMS, plugins, and server software catches most issues within a reasonably tight window.

Prioritize by Severity

Critical vulnerabilities warrant immediate action outside the regular schedule; routine patches can safely wait for the next scheduled check.

Automate Where It's Safe To

Automatic updates for well-tested, low-risk components reduce the manual burden, while more significant updates still benefit from manual review and staging tests first.
