Zero-Day Alerts Hub: Cyber Security News & Alerts

Previously unknown software flaws, or Zero-day vulnerabilities, pose a serious cyber security threat to any new or existing organization, whether a large enterprise IT system or a new, small business network. Our Zero-Day Cyber Security Alerts Hub will keep you informed of the latest news on new cyber security threats and vulnerabilities.

In cyber security, a single exploited threat or vulnerability can be devastating to your information security, bottom line and reputation. Vulnerabilities can lead to drastic damages within an organization's cyber network or system. It is best practice to keep up to date with news on the latest cyber threats and other security information.

Keeping track of security advisories and vulnerability alerts gives clients the information to keep systems up-to-date. Alerts prevent your organization from falling victim to exploits. Our alerts from news feeds should be checked daily. Follow our alerts and notification to stay current on any news in cyber security vulnerabilities. 

We have a unique capability to proactively research and discover unknown vulnerabilities – and then act quickly to bring timely disclosures to our clients.  Our dedication to the effort of finding unknown vulnerabilities provides our clients an extra measure of security and peace of mind.

Our Vulnerability Research Team (VRT) continually mines data to gather more threat or vulnerability knowledge – faster than any other provider – to seek out previously unknown vulnerabilities and disclose them according to accepted procedures. Finding news on new cyber threats and vulnerabilities continuously can quickly remediate an exploit. Our research team alerts clients when these vulnerabilities are found, so Digital Defense clients are notified immediately to quickly use an accelerated cyber security remediation method.

We are now offering this service to anyone. Contact us, or register for our Zero-Day Priority Alerts Service and you will be among the first to be notified when a threat is discovered.

We house a cyber security threat and vulnerability management platform, “in the cloud”, in our privately owned secure data center. This provides our organization the use of a robust database of aggregate data from the Digital Defense “community of clients” that can be scrutinized for suspicious flaws and vulnerabilities in cyber security.

Our Vulnerability Research Team (VRT) is vigilant in the quest to root out any vulnerabilities that pose a danger to our clients.

• We listen to our clients who report any cyber security alerts and problems their vendors cannot solve and react with investigation into any issues, thus helping them to continuously safeguard their networks.
• We pinpoint network flaws as part of your Digital Defense managed service by reviewing results of generic threat and vulnerability detections.

When new vulnerabilities and security alerts are discovered by our VRT, the flaws are responsibly disclosed according to Digital Defense’s industry standard disclosure policy. VRT works closely with vendors to ensure they are aware of the security issue, can validate and quickly provide a fix. Digital Defense users are also the first to know, so affected users can use an accelerated remediation method.

Digital Defense is proud to provide the analytic expertise necessary to quickly identify zero-day issues, improving the security posture of organizations across the globe. Our VRT has released multiple threat and vulnerability disclosures, including those within widely used platforms.

Vulnerability Management Maturity Model

Organizations are under attack from threat actors, and data breaches have risen drastically over the last five years. Intelligence information and alerts reveal that organizations are not doing enough with respect to vulnerability management and highlights a strong need for organizations to learn and evolve their vulnerability management program.

12 Information Security Mistakes You Don't Want to Make

With growing security threats affecting global organizations and personal privacy, cyber security is essential in protecting sensitive information, the infrastructure of our economy and our national security. Moving forward, businesses of all sizes and in all industries will be expected to increase alerts for information security efforts to address challenges with new technologies that are changing the landscape of human interaction and business operations in cyber security.

Penetration Testing

It can be difficult for organizations to tell which of these web-based offerings are secure. Digital Defense provides Web Application Penetration Testing (WAPT) to ensure your, internally or third-party developed, web-based applications do not introduce unforeseen vulnerabilities that can ultimately lead to hacks and breaches and jeopardize corporate or customer data.

Digital Defense’s Security Awareness Education facilitates security-minded behavior so that potential information security attacks are thwarted, ensuring your assets and reputation remain secure.

According to Wikipedia a zero-day (also known as zero-hour or 0-day or day zero) vulnerability is an undisclosed computer-software vulnerability that hackers can exploit to adversely affect computer programs, data, additional computers or a network without any alerts. It is known as a "zero-day" because it is not publicly reported or announced before becoming active, leaving the software's author with zero days in which to create patches or advise workarounds to mitigate against its actions.

Threat actors who employ attacks such as zero-day exploits are often attempted by hackers before or on the day that notice of the vulnerability is released to the public; sometimes before the author is aware or has developed and made available the corrected code. Zero-day attacks are a severe threat.
