Researchers found that vulnerabilities for the software and firmware powering medical devices and other health IT applications increased significantly – and nearly four times as many of these vulnerabilities are being weaponized compared to last year.

A joint research project conducted by Health Information Sharing and Analysis Center (Health-ISAC), Finite State, and Securin exploitable vulnerabilities in software and firmware, which can be used by hackers to breach connected devices, software applications and healthcare systems. It also discovered nearly 1,000 vulnerabilities across 966 medical products.

Ransomware groups are continuously weaponizing vulnerabilities and adding them to their arsenal to mount crippling and disruptive attacks on their victims.

Securin has been documenting and closely monitoring software vulnerabilities and developments since 2020. The bugs CISA is urging Apple users to patch are arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities that essentially grant attackers complete access to the device to manipulate as they see fit.

Researchers at Securin, Ivanti and Cyware have released their Ransomware Index Q1 2023 report, and the findings show a frightening increase in ransomware attacks and attendant data breaches.

Ransomware attacks have never been this popular, a new report from cybersecurity researchers Securin, Ivanti, and Cyware has stated.

Since June 2021, Hive Ransomware has been dominating the ransomware scene. Their reach has affected more than 1,500 organizations resulting in Hive receiving ransom payments totaling $100 million.

The report provides an update on key metrics that are being tracked in relation to ransomware, providing valuable insights to enterprises on how to safeguard their data and assets from these escalating threats.
