Why Vulnerability Management Matters for Cybersecurity Compliance
DESCRIPTION
“So the concept of vulnerability management in many ways is universal. And so if we think about it in a physical sense, try to keep our homes or our businesses secure from a physical sense. It's one of the vulnerabilities. Leaving your doors unlocked, leaving your windows unlocked, leaving a candle lit, and then leaving the house and going somewhere. Those are vulnerabilities.” - Jim Goldman
