Cynode’s Managed Vulnerability Prioritisation Service enhances Microsoft Defender Vulnerability Management by translating vulnerability insights into focused, risk-based remediation plans — delivered as a fully managed service with no added tooling or overhead.

We leverage data from Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Intune, and Entra ID, and enrich it with business impact, asset criticality, and threat intelligence (EPSS, KEV). Cynode’s contextual risk model calculates:

• Asset Risk Score (ARS): Criticality and exposure level of each system
• Vulnerability Risk Score (VRS): Likelihood and potential impact of exploitation
• Organisational Exposure Score (OES): Enterprise-wide vulnerability posture

These scores drive precise prioritisation — identifying which vulnerabilities on which assets require immediate action. We deliver grouped, system-aware remediation plans along with weekly or monthly reports for SOC, vulnerability teams, and executives.

The service reduces remediation backlog, accelerates action on high-risk findings, and supports continuous posture improvement — helping organisations maximise their Microsoft Defender investment while eliminating the need for manual triage and internal analysis.
