Risk-Based Vulnerability Management in IT: Reducing Exploitability Through Automated Prioritization

This document describes an approach to consolidating and normalizing security data across multiple sources (e.g., NDR, EDR, IT/OT, vulnerability scans, CNAPP, CASB, and Active Directory) using Fidelis Elevate, emphasizing schema reconciliation, timestamp synchronization, API/batch integrations, and data quality validation. It explains how automated correlation builds comprehensive risk context from fragmented inputs to enable unified visibility and more reliable risk assessment.
