The essential steps for cloud vulnerability management

This document outlines a cloud-first approach to vulnerability management, emphasizing contextual risk prioritization beyond CVSS/EPSS, integration of threat context (exposure, identities, secrets, data), and alignment with CISA KEV for known exploited vulnerabilities. It highlights Wiz features—Issues for attack-path context, Impact Stages to prioritize exploitable and internet-exposed findings, a Runtime Sensor to validate active vulnerabilities, and dashboards for patch management and base-image layer analysis—to streamline remediation from development through runtime and reduce MTTR.
