Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Category One vulnerabilities scream loudest
Critical flaws that breach the castle walls
Pick five findings marked with crimson warnings
Administrative rights and password falls
Fix Text guidance shows the remedy
Line by line, each step precisely drawn

[Chorus]
Remediate, validate, document the state
Five CAT I, five CAT II, seal each gate
Scan again, check again, prove the threat is gone
POA&M for stubborn flaws that linger on
STIG compliance carved in digital stone

[Verse 2]
Category Two findings whisper danger
Medium risk but multiplied they bite
Registry tweaks and service configurations
Hardening measures bring systems to rights
Apply each patch with surgical precision
Test the waters where security flows

[Chorus]
Remediate, validate, document the state
Five CAT I, five CAT II, seal each gate
Scan again, check again, prove the threat is gone
POA&M for stubborn flaws that linger on
STIG compliance carved in digital stone

[Bridge]
When remediation hits a concrete wall
Justify the risk with Plans of Action
Business needs versus security calls
Document decisions with clear satisfaction
Some vulnerabilities must coexist
Until resources shift the paradigm

[Verse 3]
Re-scanning engines verify the healing
Green checkmarks replace the crimson shame
Each validated fix becomes a building block
In fortress walls that guard the data frame
Evidence gathered, reports regenerated
Compliance metrics dance in perfect time

[Chorus]
Remediate, validate, document the state
Five CAT I, five CAT II, seal each gate
Scan again, check again, prove the threat is gone
POA&M for stubborn flaws that linger on
STIG compliance carved in digital stone

[Outro]
Ten findings conquered, systems now defended
DISA standards wrapped around each core
Laboratory lessons now transcended
Ready for the challenges in store
