NetSPI outlines recurring vulnerability management challenges: vulnerability floods, fragmented scanner tracking, 12-day average remediation coordination losses, and compliance-driven blind spots.

Three CISOs share how they present cybersecurity budgets to the board, favoring maturity metrics such as NIST CSF benchmarking over fear-based arguments to justify spending and measure ROI.

Argues the key vulnerability management question is 'So what?': findings must be weighed against business context so remediation prioritizes what genuinely threatens the business.

Citing CEO survey data and breach costs, NetSPI makes the case for PTaaS: continuous manual-plus-automated testing on a monthly or quarterly cadence instead of annual point-in-time penetration tests.
