Practical Tips for Tracking Vulnerability Remediation Progress

When vulnerability remediation succeeds at enterprise scale, it’s very rarely because the vulnerability management team is finding more vulnerabilities. It’s because the program was built around the idea of turning messy findings into steady, measurable risk reduction. That’s not an easy task. It’s easier to make it a numbers game, pointing to vulnerability volumes and how many findings were addressed, rather than accurately depicting how much real risk was eliminated.

When Hundreds of Patch Findings Require One Fix

In large-scale security environments, the primary challenge is often execution rather than a lack of detection. When multiple security tools report the same missing patch on a single machine, it creates hundreds of redundant findings that inflate backlogs and cause ticket-based workflows to break down. By aggregating these overlapping alerts into a single remediation action centered on the root cause, organizations can align their work with actual outcomes.

The Top 5 Vulnerabilities Attackers Are Using Against Your Vendors (And What It Says About Third-Party Risk)

When threat actors target your vendors, they’re not just looking to exploit a system for a single attack. They’re looking for every opportunity to scale up their operations. This means seeking ways to push their compromises as far downstream into the supply chain as they can go.

Why CVEs Alone Don't Explain Risk | Ed Amoroso & Garrett Hamilton on Actionable Security

Vulnerability data isn’t the starting point. Context is. Ed Amoroso and Garrett Hamilton unpack why CVEs on their own don’t explain risk. What matters first: ⇢ What assets actually exist⇢ How controls are deployed and configured⇢ What the live posture looks like, not last month’s report With that context in place, vulnerabilities stop being noise and start becoming decisions. Garrett also makes a critical point near the end: many security tools are excellent at producing findings, but far less effective at helping teams resolve them.

Custom Risk Scoring Is the Missing Link Between Disconnected Findings and Real Exposure Management

Most large organizations rely on multiple vulnerability and exposure scanning tools out of necessity. Infrastructure scanners, cloud security platforms, application security testing tools, container scanners, and attack surface management solutions all play a role. Each one is designed to answer a specific question. But when it comes to understanding the risk of the vulnerabilities and exposures they detect, each tool has its own approach to quantifying it.

Live From Davos: The End of Human-Speed Security

This week, I am joining global policymakers and innovators in Davos for the World Economic Forum. The theme for 2026 is "A Spirit of Dialogue", a recognition that our toughest challenges require shared understanding and cooperation. As we gather to discuss the future of the global economy, we have an opportunity to lead an urgent conversation. It centers on the reality of artificial intelligence (AI), not the hype about what it might do, but on what it is already doing in our enterprises.

Can Manufacturing Defects Really Compromise Your Network's Data?

Whenever we consider network security, it tends to cross our mind that we are dealing with hackers, malware or poor passwords. However, there is a less conspicuous danger that never makes the news: the physical elements that constitute your network infrastructure. In particular, the printed circuit boards (PCBs) that drive your routers, switches, and servers may have manufacturing defects that open holes in your security that you never thought of.

Why Vulnerability Management Falls Short - And How Exposure Management Fixes It

Vulnerability management identifies weaknesses. Exposure management helps prioritize them based on real-world risk and context. Ed and Garrett unpack why traditional vulnerability programs struggle to drive real risk reduction. The challenge isn’t discovery. It’s prioritization and follow-through. Too often, vulnerabilities are treated as isolated IT tasks—handed off, tracked by SLAs, and stripped of the context that explains why they matter in the first place.

Why One-Time Vulnerability Scans Aren't Enough

A single vulnerability scan provides a tempting snapshot of security health. Too many companies rely on such periodic checks for compliance and some semblance of risk assessment. This, however, leads to an extremely dangerous illusion of security. Modern digital environments, as well as threat actors, move at speeds that are much too high for a static, point-in-time evaluation. Treating cybersecurity as an exercise in box-ticking leaves gaps that adversaries can use.

Sensitive Data Is the Common Thread Across Most OWASP Top 10 Issues. Here's Why

The OWASP Top 10 is usually presented as a list of technical failures. Broken access control. Injection. Insecure design. Misconfiguration. Each category points to something that went wrong in the application. What it doesn’t say explicitly is what was actually at risk when it went wrong. In most real incidents, the answer is not “the application.” It’s the data inside it. Sensitive data is the reason attackers care about OWASP failures in the first place. Credentials.

How OWASP Top 10 Maps to Data Exposure Risks: 5 Hidden Threats Explained

Most teams learn the OWASP Top 10 as a list of application security failures. Injection flaws. Broken access control. Security misconfiguration. Items to scan for, remediate, and close before the next audit or penetration test. But data exposure rarely arrives neatly packaged as a single OWASP finding. When sensitive data leaks, it is almost never because one category failed in isolation.

Secure by Default: Why Snyk and Augment Code are the New Standard for AI Development

AI coding assistants have fundamentally changed development velocity. With tools like Augment Code, developers can now build and iterate at a pace that was unimaginable just a few years ago. However, this explosion in speed has created a new challenge: security teams, often still relying on manual review processes, are becoming the bottleneck.

The Versioning Ghost: Why OS Context is the Missing Coordinate

In the world of Software Composition Analysis (SCA), we often treat the tuple of (package_name, version) as a unique identifier. For example, given an NPM package angular version 1.8.0 - we would know precisely which source code was used, and what vulnerabilities affect that version.It is a common misconception that a package version maps directly to a fixed set of source code and, by extension, a static vulnerability profile.
