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.

Maybe I can share something with the group that would shed some light. Since Ransomware was created at Columbia University, why don't we ask or suggest a way to the creator of the "CryptoViral Exploit" if there is a way to mitigate the attack at the ISP or IDS/IPS layer.
I know a large number of companies are doing this but it seems their solutions (I cannot speak for InterceptX or DeepLearning with Carbon Black - I have not tested it with those solutions) are not stopping the attacks. At some point we need to go back to the drawing board to figure out the problem, just saying.
