Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative uncovers many vulnerabilities
Zero-day vulnerabilities are software vulnerabilities for which no patch exists to prevent exploitation of the vulnerability. According to the study, the Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) found 2021 percent verified security gaps in 64 - much more than providers such as Cisco, Google or Fortinet. If the vulnerability is discovered by an attacker, this can have far-reaching consequences. The zero-day vulnerabilities "Hafnium" and "Log4Shell", which became known in 2021, were particularly drastic for many German companies.
