Vulnerability assessment is the process of identifying, quantifying and prioritizing vulnerabilities in the software, hardware, cloud, and on-premises assets that make up an organization’s attack surface.
Vulnerability management is the operational practice of identifying, classifying, remediating and mitigating vulnerabilities across an organization’s attack surface.
Risk-based vulnerability management is the process of prioritizing, remediating and reporting on vulnerabilities based on the risk they pose to the business.
Traditional vulnerability management lacks the business context and threat intelligence to prioritize vulnerabilities based on the risk they pose to the specific business. Too often, vulnerability management programs rely solely on CVSS scores or scanner results to assign a priority, leaving security teams drowning in vulnerabilities and application and operations teams frustrated by chasing down and fixing vulnerabilities that don’t matter.
The objectives of a vulnerability risk management program are to identify, prioritize, communicate and remediate only the vulnerabilities that matter to the business.
A well-run risk-based program delivers the following benefits:
A risk-based approach enables the business to reduce the right cyber risks fast, while minimizing business disruption.
Powered by the one-of-a-kind Cyber Risk Graph, the Brinqa Vulnerability and Exposure Management Platform enables security professionals to centralize findings, prioritize threats based on real-world risk, automate remediation, and communicate outcomes that matter.
