Defending Against Zero Day Attacks
A Zero Day attack refers to a cyber vulnerability that was unknown to your organization’s software vendor, but has been targeted for exploitation by cyber attackers. As that vulnerability is being exploited, the targeted vendor has “zero days” to develop – and implement – a fix. Essentially, urgency is everything.
Zero Day attacks are potentially devastating to your business. They are less likely to trigger an operating system security warning. They are also unlike other forms of attack – phishing, malware, spoofing – because they deliberately target software flaws and access to operating systems. When a zero-day vulnerability is discovered, the urgency to patch it is quite serious: attackers may have already gained an entry point into your network operations.
To mitigate the impact of Zero Day attacks, it’s important to stay current with cybersecurity news of emerging threats. Emerging threats are often swift and precise, so it’s crucial to immediately patch Zero Day vulnerabilities and create barriers against known and unknown threats.
