Making Choices for Stronger Vulnerability Management

Coalition's 2024 analysis warns of a projected 25% increase in CVEs and growing attack surfaces driven by understaffed security teams, siloed threat information, technical debt, and widespread use of EOL and internet-exposed technologies; it highlights increased exploitation activity (e.g., RDP scanning, the MOVEit spike) and recommends practical mitigations—honeypots for early warning, AI-driven exploit scoring, continuous detection and response, and human oversight—to improve vulnerability management and reduce business risk.
