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.

There are organizations that provide a level of protection from a DDoS standpoint but that should be a service provided by the CSP, some of the organizations that help mitigate the problem that is listed on the market place are: (DDoS Protection Companies):
A boatload of others can be found on the link; however, if companies utilized marketplace vendors to address this problem, they will still be charged because of the application is found inside of the Virtual Gateway (VGW), since they are using quasi radius method of accounting, the organizations who have purchased internal marketplace solutions will still be affected; those that have purchased external DDoS solutions (i.e Akamai or CloudFlare) won't feel the financial crunch as much as others, this will be more of an insurance policy.
