Regardless of size, organizations are struggling with the daunting task of vulnerability risk management. According to Gartner, the average time to exploit from time of disclosure has dropped from 25 days to roughly 8 days in the last two years. In addition, the OWASP Top 10 Vulnerabilities, which are often ranked medium, made up about 40% of all vulnerabilities in the last decade.

Organizations don’t have enough time or people power to address every issue that gets identified, and remediation e‑orts are being held back by manual processes and a disconnected vulnerability response process that compromises their ability to protect the organizations in a timely manner. But how do you decide which issues need to be addressed first?
