One of the major challenges that we found during our VA and patch management activity is the application dependency on the operating system packages. Due to this, care should be taken to not blindly update the system packages. Certain times when there are high-level vulnerabilities associated with certain system packages, we have to deploy it in Dev and QA to make sure that the application works perfectly. If it works, then all is well and good, but if it doesn't, then it's a pain to figure out which package might have caused the issue.
It would be great if we could separate out the application dependency and the patch management part, and this precisely can be done with the help of containerization.
