Software vulnerabilities pose a serious risk to organisations, enabling attackers to steal data, disrupt operations, and cause financial loss by exploiting weaknesses in unpatched systems and applications.
Identifying and addressing vulnerabilities effectively is a major challenge. The sheer volume of vulnerabilities reported across a typical IT estate makes it difficult for IT teams to know where to start. Organisations need a way to understand and prioritise the vulnerabilities that present the greatest risk, so remediation efforts can be targeted and impactful.
What is Managed Vulnerability Intelligence?
Managed Vulnerability Intelligence is a service developed and delivered by Phoenix to provide targeted vulnerability reporting across an organisation’s IT estate.
The Managed Vulnerability Intelligence service builds on the strengths of a trusted, industry-recognised third-party platform to provide valuable insights into your asset exposure risks. With targeted prioritisation, our service enables your IT team to effectively focus their remediation efforts on those assets and vulnerabilities presenting the greatest risk to your organisation.
It performs in-depth discovery across a wide range of common on-premises infrastructure components, including hypervisors, networking equipment, storage systems, and servers, as well as Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) components within Microsoft Azure.
The challenge
Organisations face several obstacles when managing software vulnerabilities. In 2025 alone, over 45,000 vulnerabilities were disclosed, an average of 129 new CVEs every day, making visibility and prioritisation more critical than ever:
organisations need a clear view of vulnerabilities across their IT infrastructure to address them and reduce the risk of exploitation
many certifications, industry best practices, NCSC guidelines, and governing bodies require an effective vulnerability management strategy, which starts with understanding where the vulnerabilities are
failing to address vulnerabilities promptly increases the risk of active exploitation, with numerous high-profile cases resulting in severe operational and financial impact
