A Windows update service must be available to provide software updates for the PAW platform.
Description
Discussion Text
Older versions of operating systems usually contain vulnerabilities that have been fixed in later versions. In addition, most operating system patches contain fixes for recently discovered security vulnerabilities. Due to the highly privileged activities of a PAW, it must be maintained at the highest security posture possible and therefore must have the latest operating system updates installed.
Because a PAW is isolated from online operating system update services, a software update service must be available on the intranet to manage operating system and other software updates for site PAWs. A separate software update service is not required at each tier.
