Vulnerability Backlogs Are an Ownership Problem

Organizations don't need better vulnerability scanners; they need to know who owns their assets and has the authority and capacity to actually fix them.

Most enterprises drowning in vulnerabilities don't have a detection problem. They have an accountability problem wearing a detection problem's clothing.

You can see it in how they spend. When a backlog gets big enough to reach the board, the reflex is to buy better scanning — wider coverage, faster cycles, richer threat intel, a single pane of glass. A year later, the organization has excellent visibility into a backlog that has grown.
