But, I argue it’s simply too dangerous not to patch, and that your vulnerability program needs to be flexible enough so that you can escalate exceptional cases like regreSSHion.

Zero-day vulnerabilities: the real threat behind Netflix's "Zero Day"

Imagine a hidden flaw in software that no one—except cybercriminals—knows about. A zero-day vulnerability is exactly that: a security weakness that hasn’t been discovered or patched by developers. Because there’s no fix, attackers can exploit these flaws before anyone has a chance to defend against them.

AI-Driven Vulnerability Management: How Generative AI is Transforming Cybersecurity
