Add the ability to install Quarterly Fixpacks to the menu choices in the WebSphere Automation tool.

90% of our application maintenance activities are updating WebSphere products via Fixpack upgrade. We do not install fixes unless there is the rare emergency. So the product does not provide enough bandwidth to be considered as a viable new produc...

IDEA En-mass Group Execution of a CVE ifix – Priority 2

We concur’s with the recommendation on the IDEA to potentially do a singular remediation against many target servers; that is to do an enmass group execution of a CVE ifix.

IDEA Fixpack Augmentation – Priority 1 The recommendation is to augment the remediation artifact to include the entire history of the available fixpacks that are applicable to a vulnerability which is not done today. The current view on the glass reflects IBM’s design decision taken from a security standpoint, that WSA will promote the latest fixpack as a best practice and will most likely remain as the default choice. Kaiser can work with the API approach to install fixpacks that are not at the latest level via API customization but it would be nice to have it in the UI visibility.

As an example of why this approach would be useful, consider Kaiser’s current approach offers developers the choice of n-1, n-2, and current fixpack version. A view on the glass that will show if eight of ten CVE’s are fixed in one fixpack, that K...

IDEA #2 - PRIORITY #2 - Enhance WSA to enable en masse remediation selection and application. Currently, WebSphere Automation provides the apply for a user to select a single vulnerability.

Upon selection of a single vulnerability, a user can select only a single registered WebSphere instance for remediation application. Unfortunately, this behavior is serial and singular that does not conform to scaling needs for a security operatio...
