Every mature vulnerability management program has a scoring model that isn’t CVSS. It might say that anything on the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog jumps the queue, that an internet-facing asset outranks an internal one, or that a finding behind a compensating control can wait. These rules reflect years of experience with what gets […]
