What is a vulnerability prioritization matrix?

A vulnerability prioritization matrix is a simplified scoring grid that helps teams rank vulnerabilities based on severity and asset importance. While useful as a starting point, it often lacks the depth and scalability of a risk-based approach.

What is the EPSS score and why is it important?

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) predicts the likelihood that a vulnerability will be exploited in the wild. It helps teams make informed decisions about which vulnerabilities to fix first based on threat likelihood.

How often should vulnerability prioritization logic be updated?

Prioritization logic should be revisited regularly—ideally quarterly or in response to major changes in infrastructure, business priorities, or threat landscape.

Can Brinqa replace our current scanning tools?

No, Brinqa integrates with your existing scanning tools. It provides the intelligence and workflows needed to make vulnerability data actionable.

How does Brinqa help prioritize remediation?

Brinqa calculates contextual risk scores, maps vulnerabilities to assets and owners, and automates workflows—ensuring the right issues are addressed quickly.
