IEEE Computer Society argues that the traditional vulnerability-management timeline, built around 30/60/90-day patching windows based on severity, no longer matches reality. Attackers are now exploiting disclosed flaws within hours rather than weeks, outpacing the quarterly or monthly patch cadence many organizations still rely on. The piece points to identity governance as an emerging focus for closing this gap.
