The article discusses the overwhelming challenges faced by security teams due to the high volume of identified vulnerabilities. With over 1.3 million unique findings across customer assets, the article emphasizes the inefficiencies in vulnerability management processes that exceed capacity. It highlights the role of CVE and CVSS in tracking vulnerabilities, while also noting issues arising from differing perspectives between researchers and vendors. Ultimately, it calls for improved methods of prioritizing risks and responding to vulnerabilities to enhance security without overwhelming management teams.
The volume of CVEs makes it challenging for security teams to patch vulnerabilities promptly, resulting in some going unaddressed and leading to potential compromises.
The Common Vulnerability Enumeration (CVE) and Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) frameworks, while essential, also introduce biases and complicate vulnerability disclosure due to vendor and researcher disagreements.
