The 10 Most Impactful Types of Vulnerabilities for Enterprises TodayManaging system vulnerabilities is one of the old est - and most frustrating - security challenges that enterprise defenders face. Every software application and hardware device ships with intrinsic flaws - flaws that, if critical enough, attackers can exploit from anywhere in the world. It's crucial that defenders take stock of what areas of the tech stack have the most emerging, and critical, vulnerabilities they must manage. It's not just zero day vulnerabilities. Consider that CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog lists vulnerabilitlies in widely used applications that are "actively exploited," and most of them are flaws that were discovered several years ago and have been fixed. There are also emerging vulnerabilities in 5G networks, cloud infrastructure, Edge applications, and firmwares to consider.

What I have appreciated about DarkReading is that the format of the site and articles is such that anyone, security professional or enhtusiast, or novice from another discipline, can quickly find information they are looking for, read and absorb it with takeaway that is of use. Though a reader of many other security ezines and exploit DB sites, I frequent DarkReading which manages to maintain a professional presence while still delivering content through BlackHat of interest to the underground. DR stands apart from the rest.
Additionally, the regular presence of industry experts and known players in the article bylines say something about the quality of the pieces, and about this DarkReading community that has formed over almost a decade of evolution. The tie-in to BlackHat and the enthusiasm of that community also has provided me personally with an outlet for expressing ideas and also given me inspiration to try new things in my personal projects that I would never have considered.
Kudos, DarkReading! Here's to 10 years and decades more of documenting, teaching and hopefully evolving the information security industry.
