Abstract

The integration of ServiceNow Orchestration, Harness CI/CD capabilities, PowerShell automation, and Power BI analytics establishes a robust framework for automated patch deployment in modern cloud environments. As organizations grapple with increasingly complex infrastructure spanning multiple providers and platforms, traditional patch management approaches prove inadequate to address security vulnerabilities within compressed exploitation timelines. The architectural framework presented combines orchestration control planes with deployment pipelines, cross-platform execution capabilities, and data-driven decision support to transform patch management from a reactive, resource-intensive process into a proactive, automated component of security strategy. This integration addresses fundamental challenges of scale, consistency, and velocity while enhancing security posture through reduced exposure windows, decreased configuration errors, and improved compliance visibility across distributed cloud architectures.
