A company has a critical application that cannot be taken offline during business hours. A security patch is released that addresses a critical vulnerability. The administrator must apply the patch with minimal disruption. What is the best approach?

Apply the patch during the next scheduled maintenance window, even if it is several days away.

Apply the patch to a non-critical server first and then to the critical server without testing.

Do not apply the patch because the application is critical and cannot be disrupted.

Apply the patch immediately during business hours, accepting the risk of downtime.
