The primary purpose of identifying vulnerabilities is to remediate them before they can be exploited by malicious actors. While risk reporting and prioritization are part of the overall process, the most immediate goal is remediation.
“Vulnerability assessments identify weaknesses that need to be addressed to reduce risk to acceptable levels and prevent potential exploits.”
This aligns with ISACA’s official practice questions, where vulnerability identification directly aims to prevent exploitation.
