Sophos, a global cybersecurity leader, today announced Exploit Path Verification (EPV), a new capability that will be built into Sophos Managed Risk to help security teams better prioritize and manage exploitable vulnerabilities in their environment.

Availability will be announced at a later date.

Security teams face a widening gap between the vulnerabilities they can find and the ones they can fix. Scanners surface thousands of exposures and severity scores and rank them, but a severity score cannot tell whether a critical flaw sits behind a control that blocks it, or whether two low-severity findings chain into the path that leads to a breach.
