Selected Answer: A
A. CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) Explanation: ✔ CVSS provides a standardized scoring system to evaluate the severity of vulnerabilities, helping organizations prioritize which patches to apply based on risk and impact. ✔ CVSS scores consider factors like exploitability, impact, and ease of remediation, making it a useful tool for prioritizing patch applications. Why not the other options? B. SCAP (Security Content Automation Protocol) – SCAP is a set of standards for automating vulnerability management, but CVSS is the specific tool for prioritizing based on severity. C. OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) – While OSINT can provide useful information about vulnerabilities and threats, it does not specifically prioritize patches. D. CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) – CVEs provide unique identifiers for vulnerabilities, but they don’t include the severity scoring that helps prioritize patching.
