⚡ Free Vulnerability Prioritization Tools That Save CISOs Time ⚡

Thousands of vulnerabilities hit every year – but not all deserve your team’s immediate attention. The real challenge for CISOs is knowing which ones matter most, right now. Here are free tools that help cut through the noise and focus on what’s critical:

1️⃣ EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) – Prioritizes based on likelihood of exploitation in the wild.

2️⃣ CISA KEV Catalog – Free authoritative list of vulnerabilities actively exploited by adversaries.
🔗 https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog

3️⃣ Vulners.com – Aggregates threat intelligence, exploits, and vulnerability data with prioritization insights.
🔗 https://vulners.com

4️⃣ Qualys TruRisk Free Tier – Helps identify and prioritize vulnerabilities by risk scoring.

5️⃣ OpenVAS (via Greenbone) – Vulnerability scanner with reporting that supports prioritization workflows.

6️⃣ Kenna EPSS Explorer (Free) – Combines CVEs with EPSS data for prioritization dashboards.

7️⃣ VulnCheck Free Portal – Provides exploit intelligence to identify which CVEs are weaponized.

💡 Takeaway: Patch everything is not a strategy. These free tools let CISOs patch smart, focusing resources on the vulnerabilities most likely to be used in attacks.

At AUMINT.io, we help CISOs go further – by simulating how attackers actually exploit overlooked human and technical gaps, then providing data-driven insights to prioritize awareness and defenses.
