Back to all publications

Publication date:January 14, 2019

The purpose of this report is to provide an insight on both the opportunities and limitations the vulnerability ecosystem offers. By using the vulnerabilities published during the year of 2018 and Q1-Q2 of 2019 as a vehicle, this report goes beyond the standard exploratory analysis, which is well captured by many industry whitepapers and reports, and attempts to answer questions related to the reliability, accuracy of the vulnerability sources and the widely accepted evaluation metrics. In addition, the report leverages established vulnerability taxonomies and frameworks to explore and identify more intrinsic relationships and characteristics.
