Dive into the world of vulnerability exploitability with insights from CISA KEV, enhanced by powerful data visualizations and a deep dive into dominant vendors.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) plays a pivotal role in safeguarding the cyber landscape. One of its key contributions is the CISA KEV (Known Exploited Vulnerabilities) catalogue, a comprehensive database that highlights the most exploitable vulnerabilities. This catalogue is not just a list; it’s a critical tool for vulnerability management and application security, providing actionable insights for organizations to prioritize their security measures. Aside from KEV a common publication with other partners is the Top routinely exploited vulnerabilities

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) plays a pivotal role in safeguarding the cyber landscape. One of its key contributions is the CISA KEV (Known Exploited Vulnerabilities) catalogue, a comprehensive database that highlights the most exploitable vulnerabilities. This catalogue is not just a list; it’s a critical tool for vulnerability management and application security, providing actionable insights for organizations to prioritize their security measures.
By correlating top exploited methods with actual exploits in the wild, CISA KEV enables organizations to move beyond theoretical risks to address actual threats. This targeted approach enhances both vulnerability management and application security, allowing organizations to allocate resources more effectively.

One of the standout features of the CISA KEV Top exploitable vulnerabilities is its focus on top exploited methods, such as Remote Code Execution (RCE) and Arbitrary Code Execution. These methods are not randomly chosen; they are based on real-world exploits, making the catalogue an invaluable resource for understanding the current threat landscape. For instance, vulnerabilities like CVE-2018-13379 affecting Fortinet SSL VPNs and CVE-2021-34473 targeting Microsoft Exchange email servers are highlighted due to their frequent exploitation using specific methods like RCE.
By linking exploitable vulnerabilities with attack methodologies and frequently targeted products, CISA KEV provides a multi-dimensional view of the security landscape. This enables organizations not only to understand but also anticipate and defend against the most likely threats, thereby enhancing both vulnerability management and application security. This can help prioritise methodologies of attacks and streamline your vulnerability management and application security program. for a deeper analysis refer to top exploitable vulnerability deep dive
