In this chapter, we learned about the importance of effective reporting along with some useful reporting tools. We also had an overview of the various metrics that are critical in measuring the success of the vulnerability management program.

This chapter essentially concludes the book. We have come a long way starting from the absolute security basics, setting up the assessment environment, going through various phases of vulnerability assessment and then covering some important procedural aspects like vulnerability scoring, threat modelling, patching, reporting and metrics.

Thanks for reading the book and hope that it gave the essential insights into the entire vulnerability assessment process.
