The vulnerability management gap no one talks about

The report argues that many organizations overestimate vulnerability management coverage, with significant blind spots such as devices not visible on the network, missing agents, failed authenticated scans, and entire segments never assessed—often leaving 10–20% of assets never scanned. It recommends continuous, source-agnostic validation by aggregating and correlating data from EDR, endpoint management, discovery tools, DHCP, and vulnerability scanners to surface never-scanned assets, authentication failures, and misconfigurations, enabling proactive remediation beyond platform-native dashboards.
