- Stale Posture Definition By Signal Type
- Data Freshness Audit Worksheet
- Risk Scoring Matrix: Stale Data + Access Type = Risk Level
- Automated Remediation Workflow Templates
- Monitoring & Alerting Setup For Each Platform
Patch Level Signals: Anything older than 24 hours is stale. Patches drop without warning; a device marked "patched" yesterday may have missed a critical emergency release today. If your system pulls patch data weekly, you're operating blind for 6 days. MFA Status: Maximum 4 hours old. MFA devices get lost, reset, or disabled between sync cycles. A user who enrolled MFA 8 hours ago might have lost their phone by now. Stale posture data is any security signal more than X hours old where X depends on the signal's risk profile. This guide defines X for every signal your zero-trust system depends on.
