In-use vulnerability prioritization

In-use vulnerability prioritization is presented as an effective solution for managing the overwhelming volume of vulnerabilities in cloud environments, where security teams face the challenge of addressing thousands of new CVEs monthly. Traditional prioritization frameworks, which often rely on severity scores, fall short as they do not consider the context of vulnerabilities, leading to inefficiencies and alert fatigue. In-use prioritization focuses on vulnerabilities actively running in production, allowing security teams to concentrate on the most significant threats that pose real risks. This approach, supported by Sysdig's vulnerability management solution, helps reduce the noise by over 95% in some cases, enabling teams to provide developers with a targeted list of actionable vulnerabilities. By leveraging runtime insights, organizations can streamline remediation efforts, minimize unnecessary work, and maintain a balance between security and fast release cycles, ultimately enhancing security without hindering development progress.
