Detectify Research Continues to Reveal Pitfalls in Established Security Methods and Uncovers Top Vulnerabilities from 2023
Findings reveal that organizations' most prominent threats during 2023 are vulnerabilities not covered by common disclosure processes, like CVEs, and demonstrate the risks associated with an overly reliant approach to established methods.
- Findings reveal that organizations' most prominent threats during 2023 are vulnerabilities not covered by common disclosure processes, like CVEs, and demonstrate the risks associated with an overly reliant approach to established methods.
- Noteworthy findings from the report include:
100% of the top three vulnerabilities found across all industries were not covered by a CVE. - Additionally, 75% of the total vulnerabilities regularly scanned by Detectify, primarily crowdsourced from its community of ethical hackers, don’t have a CVE assigned.
- Over-reliance on frameworks like the CVE program weakens organizations' security posture and gives them an unrealistic sense of security.
