I just run a couple of public facing servers and this time I had the opportunity and the time to track my progress, but I like the simplicity and the timeline I see here. I was able to deliver a security vulnerability from program release to server delivery in 17 hours without rushing since I am not running critical systems.
Let me know about your experience!
