KEV vs EPSS vs CVSS: which signal should drive patching?
The three vulnerability scores answer three different questions — how bad, how likely, and is it already happening. How to combine them into a defensible patch order.
Short, opinionated explainers for people who have to decide what to patch — written against the live CSIRTS.com data so every claim links to something you can check.

CISA KEV tracks confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; exploit databases track published attack code. The gap between the two is where opportunistic attacks begin.
