We spend our days bombarded by reports of new threats, zero-days and doom-laden scenarios of cyberpocalypse. We are told diligently to patch and update everything and follow the results of pentest results to the letter but with minimal resources it is hard to prioritise what matters.This talk will focus on exploitability and why it matters in levelling the playing field and helping you rise above the noise instead of chasing junk risk. We'll cover research on the topic of exploitability and zero-days and how to apply this to your environment, so that when you next hear about the latest vulnerability you know whether it's just a good sound-byte for the twitosphere or an actionable threat.
