ICS/SCADA Cybersecurity — Question 34

Which of the CVSS metrics refer to the exploit quotient of the vulnerability?

Answer options

• A. Temporal
• B. Environmental
• C. Base
• D. All of these

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Base metrics of CVSS provide a measure of the intrinsic characteristics of a vulnerability, including its exploitability. Temporal and Environmental metrics adjust the Base score based on current conditions and the specific environment, but they do not directly measure exploitability like the Base metrics do.
