Maintain a formal update cadence for VCF components and their licensed subsystems. 2) Monitor management interfaces and network paths exposed to untrusted networks; segment and restrict access where possible. 3) Validate compatibility of each managed component before upgrading; test in a dedicated staging environment. 4) Enable audit logging and baseline configurations for SDDC Manager and vCenter components.
