### Server Security, Software Releases, and Critical Patch Updates

To ensure continued security of your system, Oracle strongly recommends that you apply the latest Software Releases. Server Software Releases include Oracle ILOM, BIOS, and other firmware updates, often referred to as “patches.” Oracle publishes these patches regularly on the My Oracle Support site. Applying these patches helps ensure optimal system performance, security, and stability. You can identify the latest Software Release for your system at: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/systems/patches/firmware/release-history-jsp-138416.html

To download a Software Release, go to My Oracle Support at: https://support.oracle.com

Oracle notifies customers about security vulnerability fixes for all its products four times a year through the Critical Patch Update (CPU) program. Customers should review the CPU advisories to ensure that the latest software release updates are applied to their Oracle products. Note that updates for Engineered Systems are specifically published for a specific Engineered Systems product (that is, you need not look at specific updates for individual software components included in your Engineered System). For more information about the Oracle CPU program, go to: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/alerts-086861.html

Oracle also recommends that you update to the latest operating system release when it becomes available. Although a minimum operating system release is supported, updating to the latest OS release ensures that you have the most up-to-date software and security patches. To confirm that you have the latest OS release, refer to the Oracle Hardware Compatibility Lists. See Supported Operating Systems.
