Question 1 of 30
Market research demonstrates that organizations often struggle to efficiently allocate resources for threat and vulnerability management. A cybersecurity team has identified a large number of vulnerabilities across the network. Which of the following approaches would be the most effective and professionally responsible for prioritizing remediation efforts?
Prioritize vulnerabilities based on a combination of their potential impact on critical business assets, the likelihood of exploitation, and the availability of threat intelligence indicating active exploitation.
Address vulnerabilities in the order they appear in the vulnerability scanner's report, focusing on those that are easiest and quickest to fix.
Focus remediation efforts exclusively on vulnerabilities that have been publicly disclosed and have readily available exploit code, regardless of their impact on the organization.
Implement all recommended patches and configuration changes suggested by the vulnerability scanner immediately, without further analysis of their criticality or potential operational impact.
