48,000+ CVEs in 2025: only 58 matter to the supply chain
By Black Kite
DownloadThird-party risk teams face a challenge: thousands of vulnerabilities disclosed annually, but only a fraction threaten vendors. Without filtering noise, organizations risk chasing low-impact CVEs while high-probability threats escalate in days.
This research offers a framework to prioritize supply chain vulnerabilities based on exploitability, vendor concentration, and attacker behavior. Key insights include:
- How attribution gaps hinder threat intelligence
- Why emerging AI tools introduce hidden vendor risks
- A four-step method to identify high-impact CVEs
Learn how prioritization and evidence-based vendor engagement transform risk management.
