Fix

Only 26% of KEV vulnerabilities were fully remediated in 2025 — down from 38% the year before (2026 Verizon DBIR). Discovery is not the bottleneck anymore; remediation is. Fix covers risk-based prioritization, patch automation, remediation workflow, compensating controls, and the compliance documentation that BOD 26-04 turned from an IT ticket into a governance requirement.

The AI-discovery era raises the stakes: Project Glasswing’s 10,000+ findings are moving through coordinated disclosure and will land as CVEs and emergency patches in software you run. Programs that cannot remediate by tier — 72 hours for critical, documented rationale for everything else — will fall behind at machine speed.

Remediation workflow

Ownership, escalation, and SLA tracking from detection to closure.

Compensating controls

Documented mitigations for findings that cannot be patched in window.

Compliance documentation

The audit trail — assessment rationale, timelines, and evidence, exportable on demand.

Compliance mappingMaps to BOD 26-04 remediation timelines, FedRAMP VER evaluation and reporting requirements, and the documentation obligations both regimes share.
