When analyzing vulnerability management metrics to identify trends, which of the following provides the most valuable insight for tracking improvement over time?
Tracking the 'Mean time to remediate' provides valuable insight into how quickly an organization is able to address vulnerabilities. Shorter remediation times typically indicate that the organization is improving its processes and resources for handling vulnerabilities. Monitoring trends in this metric helps teams assess their efficiency and effectiveness over time.
Other metrics like 'Total number of identified vulnerabilities' can be useful but might not directly indicate process improvement unless analyzed alongside remediation times and other efficiency metrics.
