Manage episode 494503745 series 3677570
In a world where thousands of vulnerabilities exist, how do you decide which to address first? In this episode, we break down the art and science of vulnerability prioritization—how analysts combine CVSS scores, asset value, exploitability, and business context to triage effectively. You’ll learn how to identify which issues must be escalated to leadership or incident response teams, and which can be handled within standard operating procedures.
We also walk through real-world prioritization workflows, including the use of dashboards, tagging systems, and analyst review boards. From vulnerability overload to critical-path remediation, this episode prepares you to prioritize with clarity and communicate with authority. For CySA+ exam success and real-world effectiveness, this skill is not optional—it’s essential. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com
