The KEV List Is Not a Vulnerability Management Strategy

CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue has become the de facto patch priority list for thousands of organisations — most of whom had no coherent strategy before it arrived. Treating the KEV list as a vulnerability management programme is a category error that leaves organisations systematically exposed to everything that has not yet been exploited.
