Figure: The vast majority of vulnerabilities (grey area) are never exploited, while a small slice (red area, about 6%) see real-world attacks (Study Finds EPSS Shows Strong Performance in Predicting Exploits). EPSS helps identify which vulnerabilities fall into that red slice. This allows leaders to prioritize those few high-risk issues and avoid diverting resources to the many that pose little immediate threat.

Part 1 - Taming the Vulnerability Flood: How EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) Helps Cybersecurity Leaders Focus on Real Threats

A new longitudinal study of 300,000 CVEs shows that the Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS) outperforms CVSS-only approaches in flagging vulnerabilities that are actually exploited in the wild. We break down key findings, what the charts reveal, and how security teams can prioritise patching with data-driven confidence.
