- Modern software applications have thousands of dependencies between open source and proprietary components, many of which have security vulnerabilities
- 70% of reported vulnerabilities in real-world applications cannot be referenced from application code, effectively posing no risk
- Organizations often prioritize vulnerability handling based on reported severity, leading to an inordinate amount of time spent on ineffective vulnerabilities
