The scariest stat in vulnerability management is wrong

You’ve heard that average time-to-exploit (TTE) for new CVEs is now negative. But what does that really mean?

Our new white paper questions popular claims about TTE and AI use in CVE discovery and exploitation, and aims to uncover the truth about the current state of vulnerability management.

How important is speed in vulnerability management?

“TTE is now negative… and attackers use AI, so they can exploit CVEs before patches are available.”

If that’s true, do defenders stand a chance? Is vulnerability management just a waste of time, since CVEs are exploited days before security teams even know about them?

Let's find out. Read the full white paper to learn:

  • What the available data says about CVEs and exploit activity
  • How AI may be affecting CVE discovery and exploitation
  • What’s happening to the typical experience of defenders
  • Five key takeaways for defenders in light of changing conditions
