Recommendation
As always we recommend keeping systems patched to the current release level as soon as possible. As this is not always possible, run a vulnerability scan of your estate and patch critical patches on critical assets first, working down the criticality levels.
Review your open source threat intelligence to see if any of your externally facing assets have new vulnerabilities and patch as soon as possible.
