CISA’s Latest Vulnerability Additions: A Federal Cybersecurity Comedy of Errors or Urgent Call to Action?
CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog just got two new additions, making it the “who’s who” of cyber threats. It’s like a VIP list, but for vulnerabilities. Federal agencies must address these ASAP, but CISA suggests everyone crash this party by fixing them to dodge cyber mishaps.
Hot Take:
Just when you thought it was safe to surf the cyber waves, CISA drops a couple of new vulnerability bombs into the KEV Catalog. It’s like a game of “whack-a-mole” where the moles are vulnerabilities and the mallet is your organization’s cybersecurity team. So gear up, nerds, because it looks like the digital villains are at it again, and they’re not quitting anytime soon!
