Is this mitigated by blocking mass storage devices on all devices on the air gapped network? Seems like the minimum you would want to do on a network important enough to air gap.
Depends. If you need updates on the software used in the air gapped network you won't have lot of options. Burning cd's doesn't sound so crazy all of a sudden though...
Wouldn't you validate that update on a test machine in an isolated environment....like we've done since forever?
That still won't say anything about the reliability of the medium. The update itself isn't the problem.
