Cyber Security Works researchers analyzed the data further by comparing the CVEs with some of the popular scanners (Nessus, Qualys, and Nexpose) and observed that they missed to detect 21 vulnerabilities tied to ransomware strains.
Popular scanners such as Tenable, Qualys and Nexpose are missing 48 vulnerabilities out of 102 vulnerabilities. To help 18000 customers who have been affected, CSW team has come up with a script that would help detect SolarWinds Orion Product running on your network.
The massive breach of SolarWinds Network Management product has compromised as many as 18,000 organizations outside of U.S Government entities, security agencies, defense entities. We took a closer look at the weaknesses that exist in other SolarWinds products and found that top scanners miss most of the vulnerabilities.
Systems, infrastructure, and sensitive information that were recentl viewed within the secure walls of one’s office is now being accessed through insecure connections and unsafe laptops from one’s home.
Today, the reliance on applications such as web proxy, remote conferencing, VPNs, etc. are at an all-time high which is yet another reason for threat actors to work overtime to exploit vulnerabilities.
With the recent breaches in Zoom application and increasing instances of ‘zoombombing’ and data theft, a definitive study of popular online video conferencing tools was needed. Take a read.
