Currently, your organization has 50 Windows Server 2012 systems deployed throughout its network. The Server 2012 systems have roles such as DNS, DHCP, File and Print Services and applications such as email and databases installed on them.

Recently, the company failed a government audit due to not having a plan for patch management and proactively monitoring servers.

Create a plan that includes all of the following, along with your justification:

  1. Develop an automated plan to patch the servers while having minimal downtime.

  2. The patches should be applied at least once a month.

  3. Create a plan to test the patches before they are deployed.

  4. Propose a solution to monitor the servers proactively.

Support your proposal with scholarly references. The paper should be 3-4 pages in APA format.
