The primary purpose of implementing automation in vulnerability management is to increase efficiency and consistency in identifying and responding to security vulnerabilities. Automated tools can consistently monitor systems for known vulnerabilities, help in scheduling scans, and manage patch deployment without the need for manual intervention. While automation certainly helps in maintaining minimum security baselines and reduces the chances of user error, its main role in the context of vulnerability management is to streamline the detection and remediation of vulnerabilities within a system.
