Importance Of Risk Based Vulnerability Management - Hina Gandhi

SEE SPEAKER INFORMATION

Abstract:

As cyber threats grow in complexity and frequency, traditional vulnerability management strategies—centered around volume and severity scores—are no longer sufficient. Risk-Based Vulnerability Management (RBVM) represents a shift from a reactive to a strategic, intelligence-driven approach that prioritizes vulnerabilities based on the actual risk they pose to an organization’s assets and operations. By incorporating business context, threat intelligence, and exploitability metrics, RBVM enables organizations to allocate resources more efficiently, reduce exposure windows, and make informed remediation decisions. The talk will explore the key principles of RBVM, its advantages over legacy models, and how it empowers organizations to align security efforts with business risk, ultimately strengthening their cybersecurity posture in a dynamic threat landscape.As cyber threats grow in complexity and frequency, traditional vulnerability management strategies—centered around volume and severity scores—are no longer sufficient.
