A zero-day threat is creating waves through the cybersecurity industry more than any other in years. On Thursday, December 9, security researchers published a proof-of-concept exploit code for CVE-2021-44228, a remote code execution vulnerability in Log4j, a Java logging library used in a significant number of internet applications. In the week since its discovery businesses worldwide are frantically trying to identify and mitigate the exploit, while security pros and experts are desperately attempting to release patches and guide organizations as new information becomes known.
Vulnerability management remains a struggle for many companies and is still only an aspiration for many others. But with digital and cloud transformation rewriting the way many firms do business, the attack surface keeps expanding and becomes more difficult for organizations to protect their environments from growing threats.

Financial institutions are a rich target for cybercriminals, who scoop up sensitive personal information that allows them to open fake accounts and fraudulent lines of credit. According to research from services firm Accenture and the Ponemon Institute, the average annualized cost of cybercrime to financial institutions exceeds $18 million.
One thing about the world of cybersecurity—it's seldom dull. The variety and creativity of cyberthieves keeps the industry constantly worth watching. November's roster of data breaches is an excellent illustration on that point: a mix of surprising methods, unusual motivations, and one old-fashioned data heist on one of the internet's most tempting targets.
