According to a recent LinkedIn post from HeroDevs, discussions at VulnCon 2026 emphasized a shift in cybersecurity from pure vulnerability detection toward decision-making and remediation context. The post highlights themes such as CVE data quality, SBOMs, VEX, and real-world remediation workflows, with particular focus on challenges that arise when software support ends and vulnerabilities become long-lived risks.

The post suggests HeroDevs is positioning itself around the problem of unpatchable vulnerabilities and risks that are not visible in traditional scanners, an area where enterprise demand may grow as regulatory and supply-chain pressures increase. For investors, this focus on contextual, outcome-oriented vulnerability management could indicate a strategic push into higher-value security services and tools, potentially enhancing the company’s relevance with CISOs and large enterprises over time.
