Get Out of Security Debt

82% of organizations carry security debt — vulnerabilities open for more than a year — while exploitation windows continue to shrink. Rather than treating vulnerability management as a backlog problem, security teams should focus on two questions: which vulnerabilities are exposed, and how long do they stay that way? Key recommendations include prioritizing crown-jewel applications, moving beyond severity scores to factor in reachability and exploitability, treating remediation as a resourced engineering function, actively managing third-party dependencies (which have a 358-day remediation half-life), and measuring exposure time rather than ticket counts.
