EPSS-based vulnerability management

Real-time threat prioritization for modern MSSPs and SOC teams, powered by NESS Threat Intel.

Risk-based vulnerability management with EPSS intelligence

Real-time threat prioritization for modern MSSPs and SOC teams, powered by NESS hq.

The challenge of alert fatigue

Security teams are drowning in thousands of CVEs classified as “critical” based solely on their CVSS score. However, statistically, less than 5% of these vulnerabilities will ever be exploited in the wild. NESS changes the traditional paradigm: we don’t just tell you what is misconfigured; we tell you what attackers are actively exploiting today. We transform an endless list of problems into a focused, risk-based action plan.

Predictive prioritization architecture with FIRST

The NESS correlation engine daily ingests the official dataset from the Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS) and cross-references it with your organization’s asset inventory.

Ingestion

Data ingestion: NESS synchronizes via API with FIRST.org to retrieve the latest exploitation probability scores (0 to 1).

Asset

Asset contextualization: We evaluate whether the vulnerable asset is critical for business operations or exposed to the internet.

Scoring

Dynamic scoring: A vulnerability with a high CVSS but a low EPSS is downgraded in priority. Conversely, a vulnerability with high exploitation probability (EPSS > 0.1) triggers an immediate remediation alert.

Cross-validation with CISA KEV

For companies seeking strict regulatory compliance and real attack surface reduction, NESS goes a step further by natively integrating the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog from the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA).

Our decision algorithm automatically escalates any finding that meets two conditions:

  1. It shows a rising exploitation probability (EPSS).
  2. It is listed in the CISA KEV catalog as active in ransomware or mass exploitation campaigns.

Enterprise benefits for managed security service providers (MSSPs)

By integrating NESS into your managed services offering, you unlock enterprise-grade capabilities for all your clients through a centralized architecture:

  • Operational efficiency: Reduce time spent on manual triage and false positives by up to 85%.

  • Multi-tenant scalability: Create targeted early-warning groups segmented by client. The MSSP receives threat intelligence focused exclusively on the relevant assets of each infrastructure.

  • Regulatory compliance: Native alignment with the risk analysis requirements of PCI DSS 4.0 and NIST CSF 2.0.

Standards and global recognition

NESS hq is committed to utilizing open standards and data from global authorities to protect critical infrastructure worldwide.

  • EPSS Adopter: We proudly utilize and promote the standard developed by the Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams (FIRST).

  • Government intelligence: Direct integration with feeds from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and NIST NVD.

  • Trusted architecture: Accelerated by Google for Startups: AI for Cybersecurity.

NESS (Network Environment Scanning and Security), focuses on developing software to help companies prevent and predict cyberattacks and failures within their technological infrastructure.
