In this episode, we will discuss zero-day vulnerabilities and how they can affect everyone.
A zero-day vulnerability is an exploit that has been discovered but not yet fixed by a software vendor. It’s essentially a security hole in software that hasn’t been patched yet. These vulnerabilities can range from minor to critical, depending on how long the vendor can patch them.
These are so dangerous because hackers can take advantage of them before they’re patched. They can use these vulnerabilities to infect your computer with malware or ransomware, steal your data, or even take control of your entire system without you knowing it’s happening!
You need to do a few different things to protect yourself from these attacks, and we will discuss them all step-by-step.
