There are five levels that make up the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) framework. These levels range from Level 1 (Basic Cyber Hygiene) to Level 5 (Advanced/Progressive). With each level of cybersecurity certification, the requirements of the previous level are built upon and new controls and practices are introduced.
Juice jacking is a security exploit in which devices are compromised when plugged into an infected USB charging station, port or use an infected charging cable. This type of security exploit takes advantage of the fact that many people need to charge their devices, especially when traveling, and use the provided USB cables to do so. Apart from charging devices, USB cables are also used to sync data which is how attackers are able to take advantage and extract data from devices.
Acropalypse (CVE-2023-21036) is a vulnerability caused by image editing tools failing to truncate images when editing has made them smaller, most often seen when images are cropped. This leaves remnants of the cropped contents written in the file after the image has finished. The remnants (written in a ‘trailer’ after the end-of-image marker) are ignored by most software when reading the image, but can be used to partially reconstruct the original image by an attacker.
