Y vulnerability management may be putting your organisation at greater risk . Just dealing with vulnerabilities that a vendor said were ‘ critical ’ isn ’ t enough and may still leave you susceptible to an attack .

Attackers are embracing ransomware and other forms of distributed cybercrime made readily available as packaged exploit kits and services on the dark web . These attacker tools target low-hanging fruit by exploiting a surprisingly small number of vulnerabilities , many of which wouldn ’ t be tagged as a high priority in a purely vulnerability-centric approach .
Threat-centric vulnerability management ( TCVM ) offers an innovative and smarter approach for your organisation ’ s vulnerability management programme that will remain effective even as the threat landscape evolves .
TCVM takes into account the context of your environment , including each asset ’ s exposure and importance to your business , the details of your current vulnerabilities , your IT environment and real-time intelligence on available and active exploits .
TCVM can tell if any instance of a vulnerability in your environment is already shielded by existing security controls and , if not , whether urgent action is needed to prevent exploitation . With TCVM , you have enterprise-wide visibility into the current status of vulnerabilities and the intelligence to manage them effectively . u
