CVSS is often misused as the sole metric for prioritizing vulnerabilities, leading to ineffective vulnerability management. To address its limitations, organizations should adopt risk-based vulnerability management (RBVM), which incorporates business context and prioritizes vulnerabilities based on real-world exploitation potential and impact. This approach allows security teams to focus on the most critical threats, improving overall efficiency and resource allocation.
