Function: Vulnerability remediation (06f12023-6c0c-5997-9983-42d9c6473b1b)
Vulnerability remediation is intended to resolve or eliminate a vulnerability. For software vulnerabilities, this typically occurs through the deployment and installation of vendor-provided solutions in the form of software updates or patches. When approved patches are unavailable or cannot be deployed, an alternative mitigation or workaround may be applied as a countermeasure to prevent exploitation of the vulnerability. This function often follows a positive identification of a vulnerability as the result of the Vulnerability Detection/Scanning/Hunting function.
