Risk-Based Vulnerability Management
Moving beyond raw CVSS scores to context-driven, risk-prioritised remediation workflows based on real asset exploitability and business criticality.
Vulnerability Scanner Overload
Security scanners generate reports with tens of thousands of vulnerabilities. Engineering teams cannot remediate everything, leading to friction, missed critical CVEs, and compliance theater.
Exploitation of Known Weaponised Flaws
Over 90% of successful breaches exploit vulnerabilities that were already known but buried within massive backlogs because the organisation lacked context on whether the asset was internet-facing or weaponised.
Contextual Exploit Prioritisation
A mature Risk-Based Vulnerability Management (RBVM) program correlates CVE data with EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System), CISA KEV catalogs, asset business value, and network exposure to identify the 2-5% of flaws that actually matter.
Operationalised RBVM Frameworks
We design realistic SLAs, integrate automated vulnerability prioritisation into Jira/DevOps workflows, and establish defensible metrics that satisfy executive risk committees and auditors alike.
Programme Scope
- Asset discovery & external attack surface management (EASM)

- Patch management governance & maintenance windows
- Exception handling, risk acceptance, and compensating controls
Advisory Deliverables
- Risk-Based Vulnerability Governance Policy & SLA Matrix
- 80%+ reduction in engineering triage backlog noise
- Verifiable reduction in exploitable attack surface
