VEX Management

Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange (VEX) — the standard for communicating which vulnerabilities actually matter to your organization.

Why VEX matters

Not every CVE is exploitable in your specific environment. VEX lets you document and communicate which vulnerabilities you've analyzed and why they do or don't apply.

Auditors are increasingly requiring VEX documents as part of compliance evidence. Without VEX, you're forced to report every CVE as a risk — including false positives.

VEX workflow

Triaging

Review each vulnerability and classify it: not affected, affected, fixed, or under investigation.

Justification

Add detailed notes explaining your decision. Reference configuration, code paths, or compensating controls.

Export

Generate standard VEX documents in CSAF format. Share them with auditors, customers, and regulators.
