Zero-Day Attacks and How to Protect Your Systems from Them
Zero-day attacks are one of the most serious threats in cybersecurity. They target unknown software weaknesses and can cause damage before anyone is aware of the issue. It is important to understand how these attacks work to better protect systems and data. A Zero-day attack exploits a software vulnerability that is unknown to the developer but already known to attackers. The attacker tries to exploit the vulnerability before the concerned team can identify and apply a patch to fix it.
