This week

No new monthly code review ran this week (the last was October 6). Sixteen new findings were added after full reviews by our automated code reviewer, each with a work ticket. Eight findings were fixed, five of them already overdue.

Third-party software: one new critical item reported, not known to be actively exploited.

Server patching

On policy All servers current; no security patches overdue. Last scan November 1.

Corporate IT & People — monitoring figures for October; phishing, training and device inventory current

Multi-factor sign-in is enforced for every account. The monthly device inventory covers 76 devices: every Windows computer runs Windows 11, and a single conference-room unit is one release behind. Our provider's October monitoring reports arrived automatically on November 1, the first month without a re-send. The provider's September service report (October's arrives in early November): 38 support tickets opened and 38 closed, with all 8 customer reviews positive.

Recover — Backup & Continuity Readiness

Can we come back from a bad day, and how much would we lose? Proven by tests, not job logs.

RPO = maximum data loss if the system failed right now. The database restore test runs automatically every month without anyone starting it; October's ran the 15th and the next is due mid-November. All scheduled image backups for live systems completed this period.

Decisions & Risks — What Needs Exec Attention

DRAFT — written from this week's data, reviewed with the CTO

Security fix backlog is shrinking, but most open findings are still past target

79 of 118 open findings are past the date we committed to fix them; 33% are inside their window, up from 22%. Eight findings were fixed this week, five of them overdue. Sixteen new findings were added after full reviews by our automated code reviewer, and each already has a work ticket. 24 medium-rated findings from July's review still have no work ticket. Two of the three open critical items are overdue.

Company Hierarchy shipped; HubSpot Integration is still in development

Company Hierarchy Phase 2 is live this week. HubSpot Integration, due September 30, is the one roadmap item past its target.

Still on my list: the disaster-recovery tabletop exercise

It's the one recovery control we haven't exercised end to end, and getting it on the calendar is on me.
