The role of vulnerability management has never been more critical, especially as professionals in the field face the daunting task of securing entire organizations with minimal budget and headcount.

As digital threats grow increasingly sophisticated, organizations must stay ahead by adopting advanced strategies to manage and mitigate vulnerabilities. This necessity has driven significant changes in how remediation operations are conducted, emphasizing the importance of continuous improvement and innovation. Seemplicity’s 2024 Remediation Operations Report revealed several key trends and practices that are shaping the future of remediation operations.

Communication across business units, technology layers, and systems is a massive challenge when it comes to streamlining any process, especially vulnerability remediation. Seemplicity’s new Microsoft Teams integration elevates cross team collaboration by facilitating the distribution of information, remediation requests, and more. These capabilities enable users to share findings with varying levels of context, depending on the recipients’ requirements. .

Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) serves as a strategic framework for evaluating an organization’s security posture. CTEM is specifically designed to identify and address vulnerabilities and other security gaps within an organization’s digital infrastructure. In essence, CTEM is a systematic approach to fortify cyber defenses and mitigate potential security risks effectively. Gartner, which created CTEM, sees it as a sort of Vulnerability Management 2.0.

The security space has evolved in complexity and scale, especially since 2020’s forced digital transformation hit virtually every industry. Day to day tasks for IT and security teams extend beyond the scope of people and their devices.

With the Seemplicity platform and VulnCheck KEV, organizations can remediate the riskiest vulnerabilities faster than ever. The integration of the VulnCheck KEV catalog, a community resource that enables security teams to manage vulnerabilities and risk with additional context and evidence-based validation, is available to all Seemplicity platform customers.
