performing-endpoint-vulnerability-remediation

Performs vulnerability remediation on endpoints by prioritizing CVEs based on risk scoring, deploying patches, applying configuration changes, and validating fixes. Use when remediating findings from vulnerability scans, responding to critical CVE advisories, or maintaining endpoint compliance with patch management SLAs. Activates for requests involving vulnerability remediation, CVE patching, endpoint vulnerability management, or security fix deployment.

# Performing Endpoint Vulnerability Remediation

## When to Use

Use this skill when:
- Remediating vulnerabilities identified by scanners (Nessus, Qualys, Rapid7)
- Responding to zero-day CVE advisories requiring immediate patching
- Maintaining compliance with patch management SLAs (critical within 14 days, high within 30 days)
- Building a prioritized remediation plan from vulnerability scan results

**Do not use** this skill for vulnerability scanning itself (use scanning tools) or for application-layer vulnerability remediation (use DevSecOps processes).

## Common Misconfigurations & Verification

- **Reported-but-not-applied:** WSUS/SCCM/Intune marking a KB as "deployed" means it was sent, not installed. Confirm on the host with `Get-HotFix -Id KBxxxxxxx` or `wmic qfe`; a deployment dashboard alone is not proof.
