Patch What Attackers Use. Not Just What Scores High.
Most patch lists follow a severity score, but attackers go after what they can turn into a working exploit. Vulnerability intelligence adds what is being discussed, sold and used, and checks it against the systems you run.

Fix The Flaws. Attackers Actually Use.
Vulnerability intelligence is information about which software flaws attackers are discussing, testing, selling or exploiting. It adds real exploitation activity to a flaw's severity score and matches it to the technology a company runs. The result is a short, ranked list of what to patch first, instead of one long list of everything.
Score-Only Patching
- Severity Scores Are Only TheoryA score describes how bad a flaw could be. It does not say whether anyone is using it, so teams can spend weeks on flaws no attacker wants.
- Exploits Appear Before You KnowExploit talk on dark web forums and Telegram channels, and proof-of-concept code on public sites, often shows up before a flaw is widely abused.
- Too Many Flaws, Too Little TimeNew flaws are published every day. Without a way to tell which ones apply to your systems and are in use, the team cannot keep up.
With Vulnerability Intelligence
- Severity Plus EvidenceFlaws are ranked with real exploit activity from forums, markets and public proof-of-concept code, not the score alone.
- A Signal Before The WaveExploit talk and new proof-of-concept code show up in your alerts before a flaw is widely used.
- Only What You RunEach flaw is checked against the software, versions and devices you declare, so you see what is both exploited and present.
From Every New CVE. To A Short List.
Each flaw is collected, watched for exploitation and matched to what you run.
- Collect The Flaws The platform tracks NVD entries, vendor advisories and the CISA catalog of exploited flaws.
- Watch For Exploitation It follows exploit chatter, exploit markets and proof-of-concept code on public sites to see which flaws are becoming weaponized.
- Match To Your Stack Each flaw is checked against the software, versions and devices you declare, and your team is alerted only when it is both exploited and present.
What Changes Once It Runs.
- A Shorter Patch List Your team works first on flaws that are exploited and present in your systems.
- Earlier Warning You see exploit activity and new proof-of-concept code before a flaw is used against you.
- A Reason For Every Priority Each alert shows the evidence behind it, so you can explain to leadership why one patch came before another.
Same Flaws. A Different Order.
Two ways to decide what to patch first. One follows the score. The other follows the attackers and your own systems.

CVSS gives a theoretical severity score. Vulnerability intelligence adds what attackers are discussing, selling and using, so patching follows real exploitation activity rather than the score alone.
-
It watches NVD, vendor advisories and the CISA KEV catalog, plus dark web forums, Telegram channels, exploit markets, and proof-of-concept code on GitHub, paste sites and exploit-db.
-
Every weaponized CVE is checked against your declared technology inventory, such as software, versions, operating systems and network devices. Your team is alerted only for flaws that are both exploited and present in your systems.
-
A published proof-of-concept exploit sharply increases the risk window for any organization running the vulnerable software, so proof-of-concept release events are tracked as a warning sign.
-
It lists vulnerabilities exploited in the wild. CISA advises organizations to use it as an input to their vulnerability management prioritization, so it is a useful signal of what to fix first.
-
New CVEs and advisories are collected, then checked against underground activity, proof-of-concept releases and exploit sales. Each is matched to the software you run, scored for how likely exploitation is, and sent to your vulnerability management or ticketing tools.
-
It means spotting talk of working exploits for flaws that are not yet patched or publicly disclosed, for example offers on underground forums. It gives an early warning, though it is a signal and not a confirmed vulnerability.
-
A CVE is a public identifier for a known software flaw. The platform tracks NVD entries, vendor advisories and the CISA catalog of exploited flaws. Each flaw is then watched for signs of exploitation.
-
You declare the software, versions and devices you run. Each flaw is checked against that list. Your team is alerted only when a flaw is both exploited and present.
-
Exploit talk on dark web forums and Telegram channels often shows up before a flaw is widely abused. Seeing it early gives your team a warning signal. It helps decide which patch should come first.
