π― Threat vs Vulnerability vs Risk
Confusing these three core concepts is a common mistake in infrastructure defense:
π― Threat: The danger (e.g., Ransomware).
πͺ Vulnerability: The weak spot (e.g., Unpatched OS).
π₯ Risk: The damage when a threat exploits a vulnerability.
Formula: Risk = Threat Γ Vulnerability Γ Impact
You can't eliminate threats, but patching vulnerabilities reduces your risk.
How do you prioritize risk in your environment? π
