What is Vulnerability Management?

The goal of vulnerability management is to ensure that organizations have complete visibility and control of weaknesses that exist within their IT estates on a continuous basis.

What is the Vulnerability Management Process?

Vulnerability management starts with the discovery of security issues and concludes with validating whether remediation has been successful, before repeating continuously. It’s essential that the vulnerability remediation process is continuous, as new vulnerabilities could emerge at any time, and pre-existing vulnerabilities could become more critical.
