*Should you drop everything for a 9.8/10 vulnerability?*

In the world of cybersecurity, the *Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)* is the industry standard for assigning severity to CVEs. But a high number doesn’t always tell the whole story. In this video, we break down the logic behind these scores and why they shouldn't be your only metric for risk.

*In this video, we cover:*
*The 0–10 Scale:* A breakdown of how vulnerabilities are categorized into **Low (0–3), Medium (4–6), High (7–8), and Critical (9–10)**.
*The Calculation Factors:* How scores are determined by factors like *ease of exploit**, whether an attacker needs **credentials**, and the **potential damage* they can cause.
*The Severity vs. Risk Gap:* Why a "Critical" 9.8 score might have zero active exploits, while a "Medium" 6.5 score could already be *weaponized and used in active attacks* against organizations like yours.

*The Bottom Line:*
CVSS measures a **worst-case scenario**, not necessarily the likelihood of an attack in your specific setup. It is a useful starting point, but context is everything.

*Go Beyond the Score:*
