UC2 Risk Ruler for CVSS 4.0: Visualizing Vulnerability Severity and Data Confidence
summary
The UC2 Risk Ruler augments CVSS 4.0 by visualizing score precision, maturity and data confidence, converting vendor base scores into confidence-aware bins and probabilistic ranges. It demonstrates a vendor base score of 8.6 → 4.2 example where adding threat and environmental metrics moves a score from high to mid and shows when to stop at 11 actionable buckets rather than chasing decimals. The method outputs ranges usable as min/max for stochastic models, labels confidence as High, Medium, Low, Unknown, and is published as UC2 Risk Ruler.
