Exam SY0-601 topic 1 question 79 discussion

CVSS is maintained by the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (first.org/cvss). CVSS metrics generate a score from 0 to 10 based on characteristics of the vulnerability, such as whether it can be triggered remotely or needs local access, whether user intervention is required, and so on

A. CVSS

CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) is a standardized scoring system used to assess and quantify the severity of known vulnerabilities. It provides a calculated value or score for each vulnerability based on its characteristics and potential impact. The CVSS score helps organizations prioritize their mitigation efforts by understanding the severity of each vulnerability and taking appropriate action accordingly. Higher CVSS scores indicate more severe vulnerabilities that require immediate attention and mitigation.

CVSS is a standardized framework used to assess and quantify the severity of vulnerabilities in software systems. It provides a numerical score to represent the risk level associated with a specific vulnerability. The score takes into account various factors, such as the impact of the vulnerability, its exploitability, and the level of security controls in place. The score helps organizations prioritize their mitigation efforts by focusing on vulnerabilities with higher scores, indicating a greater potential impact.
