Vulnerability Management: Ruslan Rakhmetov's Comments in CISOCLUB

In today's digital landscape, vulnerability management is becoming an integral element of any organization's cybersecurity. The growth of IT infrastructure, the use of cloud services, the introduction of DevOps practices and the proliferation of open source programs have led to the fact that the number of potential points of attack is constantly increasing. At the same time, malicious campaigns are becoming more targeted and automated, and the average time to detect and eliminate vulnerabilities is often not enough to prevent incidents.

Ruslan Rakhmetov, CEO of Security Vision, told the CISOCLUB editorial board how effective vulnerability management is being built today in the face of a growing number of threats and a more complex IT landscape, and answered the following questions:

   · What sources and methods are used to timely identify vulnerabilities and verify their relevance to the infrastructure?

   · How to build a centralized collection, aggregation and correlation of data from scanners, bug bounties and ticket systems?

   · By what criteria are vulnerability risks assessed taking into account the likelihood of exploitation and the business value of assets?

   · How to organize an automated and manual triage of vulnerabilities based on the estimates received?

   · What integrations with CI/CD pipelines and orchestrators speed up the deployment of patches and configuration edits?

   · What metrics and KPIs are used to monitor the efficiency, speed, and quality of vulnerability management processes?

   · What technologies and approaches can change the vulnerability management process in the coming years?
