The number of vulnerabilities is constantly growing, and we know how difficult it can be to keep up with remediation efforts and deliver maximum business value. We’re excited to announce our new risk-based vulnerability enhancement, which reduces vulnerability noise for IoT, OT, and MIoT devices by up to 90% and enables network and security teams to focus on what matters.
The vulnerability prioritization ranks all the CVEs identified in the customer’s tenant using a multifactor risk assessment and provides a priority classification (Top, Medium or Low) for each CVE. Risk is measured taking into account the vulnerability severity level, the likelihood of exploitation indicators and the potential impact given specific factors unique to the organization environment.
Vulnerability Metrics:
Threat Metrics:
Impact Metrics (Organization Specific):
This framework allows us to extend the prioritization methodology to additional contextual data that may be considered relevant as the model evolves and continues to be fine tuned for more meaningful calculation and insights.
The priority attribute is displayed in our UI along with a variety of other important risk related information, to help users better understand their potential attack surface and which CVEs matters most from a risk prioritization point of view and take action on.

Additionally, for the top prioritized CVEs, when patches are not readily available for the CVE remediation or it may be difficult for asset owners to schedule maintenance windows, our IoT/ OT Security solutions inform which CVEs have Threat Prevention signature coverage. You can then leverage the Zero Trust Policy recommendations and attach the security profiles with vulnerability protection as a compensating control. This capability can prevent malicious actions from exploiting known vulnerabilities, helping security teams maintain the stability and reliability of critical systems. In some cases, it can even extend the lifespan of IoT/ OT systems that are otherwise end of life!

The risk-based vulnerability prioritization is one of the many innovations in our IoT/OT/Medical Security solutions that can help secure all your devices while significantly optimizing your operations. These solutions offer a comprehensive Zero-Trust architecture that allows our customers to quickly discover every device, understand their attack surface, prioritize risk mitigation efforts and secure hard-to-patch vulnerable IoT, OT and Medical IoT devices with context-rich security policy recommendations and vulnerability threat signatures to stop exploit attempts.
