In CEH v13 Module 10: Vulnerability Assessment, the Vulnerability Management Lifecycle is defined with the following structured steps:

Identify assets & baseline (Step 2)

Vulnerability scanning (Step 5)

Risk assessment/prioritization (Step 6)

Remediation (Step 1)

Verification (Step 3)

Continuous monitoring (Step 4)

So the correct lifecycle flow is:

2 → 5 → 6 → 1 → 3 → 4

This ensures vulnerabilities are identified, assessed, remediated, validated, and monitored on an ongoing basis.
