Exposing the exploited: Analyzing vulnerabilities that live in the wild

It’s time to recognize official security vulnerability catalog systems aren’t enough. There are too many gaps in the named security vulnerability process. And plenty of vulnerabilities do not receive the attention they deserve. Some vendors silently patch issues while others leave vulnerabilities in a reserved state. There is not one source of information that contains every vulnerability being exploited. The result?

Securing medical devices: The role of fuzz testing in cybersecurity

In today's digital and interconnected era, the healthcare sector operates in a landscape of security risks. In 2023 alone, the number of vulnerabilities uncovered in medical devices jumped by 59% to 993 issues. Consequently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the European Commission, and other governmental agencies have issued cybersecurity guidelines for medical devices. Many of these guidelines advocate for fuzz testing as a means of vulnerability detection.

Paris Olympic Games wins cybersecurity silver - how does your attack surface compare?

Using our own proprietary External Attack Surface Management (EASM) solution, Outpost24’s Sweepatic, we have conducted an attack surface analysis on the Paris 2024 Olympic Games online infrastructure. The Paris 2024 cybersecurity team have done plenty right, but we’ve also highlighted some real-life attack surface risks that have slipped through the gaps (and do so for many organizations) including open ports, SSL misconfigurations, cookie consent violations, and domain squatting.
