Using on-premise Red Hat Lightspeed capabilities to monitor security flaws and apply advisor remediations

What happened

Between tracking Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), prioritizing by business risk, planning RHEL upgrades, and remediating issues, operations teams juggle multiple tools and workflows daily. A practical example is the "In-place Upgrade Inhibitor" recommendation (see Figure 1).

Managing vulnerabilities across a fleet of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) systems is a continuous challenge. Red Hat Lightspeed brings a greater level of situational awareness into your on-premise environment to help you discover, prioritize, and fix security and other issues, without your system data ever leaving your network. Red Hat is a software company based in Raleigh, and its products and services include Fedora Linux.

The primary benefit is the "total risk" visualization, which helps you to assess the overall impact of potential issues across the entire fleet. Instead of scrolling through endless lists of alerts, you'll see a clearly prioritized overview where risk is calculated based on the severity of the issue and the number of affected systems.
