Security teams often rely on scoring systems like Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS), Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS), and Stakeholder-Specific Vulnerability Categorization (SSVC) to make sense of vulnerability data—but these frameworks don't always deliver the clarity needed to act. In this episode, Tod Beardsley, Vice President of Security Research at runZero, joins host Sean Martin at InfoSec Europe 2025 to challenge how organizations use these scoring systems and to explain why context is everything when it comes to exposure management.Beardsley shares his experience navigating the limitations of vulnerability scoring. He explains why common outputs—like a CVSS score of 7.8—often leave teams with too many “priorities,” forcing them into ineffective, binary patch-or-don't-patch decisions. By contrast, he highlights the real value in understanding factors like access vectors and environmental fit, which help security teams focus on what's relevant to their specific networks and business-critical systems.The conversation also explores SSVC's ability to drive action through decision-tree logic rather than abstract scores, enabling defenders to justify priorities to leadership based on mission impact. This context-centric approach requires a deep understanding of both the asset and its role in the business—something Beardsley notes can be hard to achieve without support.That's where runZero steps in. Beardsley outlines how the platform identifies unmanaged or forgotten devices—including IoT, legacy systems, and third-party gear—without needing credentials or agents. From uncovering multi-homed light bulbs that straddle segmented networks to scanning for default passwords and misconfigurations, RunZero shines a light into the forgotten corners of corporate infrastructure.The episode closes with a look at merger and acquisition use cases, where runZero helps acquiring companies understand the actual tech debt and exposure risk in the environments they're buying. As Beardsley puts it, the goal is simple: give defenders the visibility and context they need to act now—not after something breaks.Whether you're tracking vulnerabilities, uncovering shadow assets, or preparing for your next acquisition, this episode invites you to rethink what visibility really means—and how you can stop chasing scores and start reducing risk.Learn more about runZero: https://itspm.ag/runzero-5733Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Tod Beardsley, Vice President of Security Research at runZero | On Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/todb/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from runZero: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/runzeroAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-storyKeywords: sean martin, tod beardsley, runzero, exposure, vulnerability, asset, risk, ssdc, cvss, iot, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast

Forecast = Stormy with a chance of TikTok malware showers—exploit scoring systems hot, but patch management outlook remains partly cloudy. Welcome to Storm⚡️Watch! In this episode, we're diving into the current state of cyber weather with a mix of news, analysis, and practical insights. This week, we tackle a fundamental question: are all exploit scoring systems bad, or are some actually useful? We break down the major frameworks: **CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System):** The industry standard for assessing vulnerability severity, CVSS uses base, temporal, and environmental metrics to give a comprehensive score. It's widely used but has limitations—especially since it doesn't always reflect real-world exploitability. **Coalition Exploit Scoring System (ESS):** This system uses AI and large language models to predict the likelihood that a CVE will be exploited in the wild. ESS goes beyond technical severity, focusing on exploit availability and usage probabilities, helping organizations prioritize patching with better accuracy than CVSS alone. **EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System):** EPSS is a data-driven approach that estimates the probability of a vulnerability being exploited, using real-world data from honeypots, IDS/IPS, and more. It updates daily and helps teams focus on the most urgent risks. **VEDAS (Vulnerability & Exploit Data Aggregation System):** VEDAS aggregates data from over 50 sources and clusters vulnerabilities, providing a score based on exploit prevalence and maturity. It's designed to help teams understand which vulnerabilities are most likely to be actively exploited. **LEV/LEV2 (Likely Exploited Vulnerabilities):** Proposed by NIST, this metric uses historical EPSS data to probabilistically assess exploitation, helping organizations identify high-risk vulnerabilities that might otherwise be missed. **CVSS BT:** This project enriches CVSS scores with real-world threat intelligence, including data from CISA KEV, ExploitDB, and more. It's designed to help organizations make better patching decisions by adding context about exploitability. Next, we turn our attention to a troubling trend: malware distribution via TikTok. Attackers are using AI-generated videos, disguised as helpful software activation tutorials, to trick users into running malicious PowerShell commands. This “ClickFix” technique has already reached nearly half a million views. The malware, including Vidar and StealC, runs entirely in memory, bypassing traditional security tools and targeting credentials, wallets, and financial data. State-sponsored groups from Iran, North Korea, and Russia have adopted these tactics, making it a global concern. For employees, the takeaway is clear: never run PowerShell commands from video tutorials, and always report suspicious requests to IT. For IT teams, consider disabling the Windows+R shortcut for standard users, restrict PowerShell execution, and update security awareness training to include social media threats. We also highlight the latest from Censys, VulnCheck, runZero, and GreyNoise—industry leaders providing cutting-edge research and tools for vulnerability management and threat intelligence. Don't miss GreyNoise's upcoming webinar on resurgent vulnerabilities and their impact on organizational security. And that's a wrap for this episode! We will be taking a short break from Storm Watch for the summer. We look forward to bringing more episodes to you in the fall! Storm Watch Homepage >> Learn more about GreyNoise >>  

Forecast = Mostly cloudy with a chance of rogue SSH access—keep your patches up to avoid a phishy forecast! Welcome to Storm⚡️Watch, where we unpack the latest in cybersecurity threats, research, and the tools that keep the digital world safe. In this episode, we invite GreyNoise Security Architect and researcher Matthew Remacle (a.k.a., Remy) to kick things off with a deep dive into a fascinating and highly sophisticated botnet campaign targeting ASUS routers—a story that starts with a little help from machine learning and ends with some hard lessons for defenders everywhere. GreyNoise researchers spotted this campaign using SIFT, their AI-powered network traffic analyzer, which sifted through more than 23 billion network entries and managed to flag just 30 suspicious payloads targeting ASUS routers. What made this botnet stand out was its surgical precision and stealth—far from the usual noisy, attention-grabbing attacks. The attackers knew exactly what they were doing, focusing on disabling TrendMicro security features embedded in the routers, essentially breaking in by first turning off the alarm. The attack chain reads like a masterclass in persistence: brute force and clever authentication bypasses got them in the door, a null byte injection tricked the router's authentication system, and a command injection vulnerability allowed them to manipulate logging features in a way that opened up even more attack paths. The real kicker? The final backdoor was installed using legitimate ASUS features, meaning it could survive firmware updates and stay hidden from traditional detection methods. This campaign affected thousands of routers globally, with over 4,800 compromised devices detected and counting. Even after ASUS released a patch—adding character validation rather than fixing the underlying flaw—researchers found that the fundamental vulnerability remained, and attackers could potentially work around the patch. This story highlights the ongoing challenges in IoT security: complexity breeds vulnerability, persistence is a nightmare to detect and remove when attackers use legitimate features, and patches often address symptoms rather than root causes. It's a reminder that traditional signature-based detection is no longer enough—behavioral analysis and AI-driven anomaly detection are now essential for spotting these advanced threats. We also touch on the bigger picture: the evolving cat-and-mouse game between attackers and defenders, the importance of defense in depth, and why understanding normal network behavior is more critical than ever. Plus, we look at the human element—attackers who are patient, technically sophisticated, and deeply aware of how to evade detection. For organizations, the takeaways are clear: defense in depth, behavioral monitoring, asset management, and patch management are all non-negotiable. And for everyone else, it's a reminder that the devices we trust to protect us are themselves complex and potentially vulnerable computers. Later in the episode, we take a closer look at vulnerability scoring systems—CVSS, EPSS, and SSVC—and why reading between the scores is so important for risk management. We also highlight the value of fresh, actionable data from sources like Censys and VulnCheck, and round things out with a nod to the ongoing conversation happening on the GreyNoise blog. Thanks for tuning in to Storm⚡️Watch. Stay vigilant, keep learning, and remember: in cybersecurity, the difference between safe and compromised can be as subtle as a single null byte.

In this episode, I sit with long-time vulnerability management and data science experts Jay Jacobs and Michael Roytman, who recently co-founded Empirical Security.We dive into the state of vulnerability management, including:How it is difficult to quantify and evaluate the effectiveness of vulnerability prioritization and scoring schemes, such as CVSS, EPSS, KEV, and proprietary vendor prioritization frameworks, and what can be done betterSystemic challenges include setbacks in the NIST National Vulnerability Database (NVD) program, the MITRE CVE funding fiasco, and the need for a more resilient vulnerability database and reporting ecosystem.Domain-specific considerations when it comes to vulnerability identifiers and vulnerability management, in areas such as AppSec, Cloud, and Configuration Management, and using data to make more effective decisionsThe overuse of the term “single pane of glass” and some alternativesEmpirical's innovative approach to “localized” models when it comes to vulnerability management, which takes unique organizational and environmental considerations into play, such as mitigating controls, threats, tooling, and more, and how they are experimenting with this new approach for the industry

When artificial intelligence can generate code, write tests, and even simulate threat models, how do we still ensure security? That's the question John Sapp Jr. and Alex Kreilein examine in this energizing conversation about trust, risk management, and the future of application security.The conversation opens with a critical concern: not just how to adopt AI securely, but how to use it responsibly. Alex underscores the importance of asking a simple question often overlooked—why do you trust this output? That mindset, he argues, is fundamental to building responsible systems, especially when models are generating code or influencing decisions at scale.Their conversation surfaces an emerging gap between automation and assurance. AI tools promise speed and performance, but that speed introduces risk if teams are too quick to assume accuracy or ignore validation. John and Alex discuss this trust gap and how the zero trust mindset—so common in network security—must now apply to AI models and agents, too.They share a key concern: technical debt is back, this time in the form of “AI security debt”—risk accumulating faster than most teams can keep up with. But it's not all gloom. They highlight real opportunities for security and development teams to reprioritize: moving away from chasing every CVE and toward higher-value work like architecture reviews and resiliency planning.The conversation then shifts to the foundation of true resilience. For Alex, resilience isn't about perfection—it's about recovery and response. He pushes for embedding threat modeling into unit testing, not just as an afterthought but as part of modern development. John emphasizes traceability and governance across the organization: ensuring the top understands what's at stake at the bottom, and vice versa.One message is clear: context matters. CVSS scores, AI outputs, scanner alerts—all of it must be interpreted through the lens of business impact. That's the art of security today.Ready to challenge your assumptions about secure AI and modern AppSec? This episode will make you question what you trust—and how you build.___________Guests: Alex Kreilein, Vice President of Product Security, Qualys | https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexkreilein/John Sapp Jr., Vice President, Information Security & CISO, Texas Mutual Insurance Company | https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnbsappjr/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974Akamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcBlackCloak: https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebSandboxAQ: https://itspm.ag/sandboxaq-j2enArcher: https://itspm.ag/rsaarchwebDropzone AI: https://itspm.ag/dropzoneai-641ISACA: https://itspm.ag/isaca-96808ObjectFirst: https://itspm.ag/object-first-2gjlEdera: https://itspm.ag/edera-434868___________ResourcesJP Morgan Chase Open Letter: An open letter to third-party suppliers: https://www.jpmorgan.com/technology/technology-blog/open-letter-to-our-suppliersLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsa-conference-usa-2025-rsac-san-francisco-usa-cybersecurity-event-infosec-conference-coverageCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

SAN FRANCISCO — RSA Conference 2025 "Sixty percent of the attacks we're tracking target low-profile vulnerabilities—things like privilege escalation and security bypasses, not the headline-making zero days," says Douglas McKee, Executive Director of Threat Research at SonicWall. Speaking live from the show floor at RSA 2025, McKee outlined how SonicWall is helping partners prioritize threats that are actually being exploited, not just those getting attention. In a fast-paced conversation with Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green, McKee unveiled SonicWall's upcoming Managed Prevention Security Services (MPSS). The offering is designed to help reduce misconfigurations—a leading cause of breaches—by assisting with firewall patching and configuration validation. SonicWall is also collaborating with CySurance to package cyber insurance into this new managed service, providing peace of mind and operational relief to MSPs and customers alike. “Over 95% of the incidents we see are due to human error,” McKee noted. “With MPSS, we're stepping in as a partner to reduce that risk.” McKee also previewed an upcoming threat brief focused on Microsoft vulnerabilities, revealing an 11% year-over-year increase in attacks. Despite attention on high-profile CVEs, SonicWall's data shows attackers often rely on under-the-radar vulnerabilities with lower CVSS scores. For MSPs, McKee shared a stark warning: nearly 50% of the organizations SonicWall monitors are still vulnerable to decade-old exploits like Log4j and Heartbleed. SonicWall's telemetry-driven insights allow MSPs to focus remediation on widespread, high-impact threats. SonicWall's transformation from a firewall vendor to a full-spectrum cybersecurity provider was on display at RSA Booth #6353 (North Hall), where the company showcased its SonicSensory MDR, cloud offerings, and threat intelligence. "We've evolved into a complete cybersecurity partner," McKee said. "Whether it's in the cloud or on-prem, we're helping MSPs and enterprises defend smarter." Visitors to the SonicWall booth were treated to live presentations and fresh coffee—while those not attending can explore SonicWall's insights, including its February 2024 Threat Report and upcoming threat briefs, at www.sonicwall.com.

Het kwam vorige week als donderslag bij heldere hemel. Een dag voor het verstrijken van de deadline van 16 april werd duidelijk dat er nog geen nieuwe fondsen beschikbaar gesteld waren door de Amerikaanse overheid voor de CVE-database van de MITRE Corporation. Te elfder ure kwam het toch nog goed. Voor nu althans, want wie weet hoe het over elf maanden gaat, als de nieuwe termijn afloopt. Hoe moeten we deze gang van zaken interpreteren? En wat kunnen we doen om een herhaling van de toch wel paniekerige reacties vorige week te voorkomen? We bespreken het in de nieuwste aflevering van Techzine Talks.De CVE-database is best belangrijk voor de security-industrie. CVE staat voor Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures en is feitelijk de standaard voor het melden en rangschikken van kwetsbaarheden in software en hardware. Deze krijgen ook altijd een score volgens het CVSS, oftewel het Common Vulnerability Scoring System. Op basis daarvan kunnen betrokken partijen dan weer actie ondernemen om het oplossen van bepaalde kwetsbaarheden prioriteit te geven. Het verdwijnen, of in ieder geval het niet meer onderhouden van de CVE-database is in de basis verre van wenselijk. Niet dat we zonder die database volledig aan de goden overgeleverd zijn, maar het zou dan wel ontbreken aan een centrale plaats waar iedereen terecht kan voor informatie over daadwerkelijk vastgestelde en geverifieerde kwetsbaarheden. Dat is niet handig en kan best voor wat vervelende situaties zorgen, zeker als de huidige database steeds minder courant en daarmee relevant wordt.In deze aflevering van Techzine Talks gaan we dieper in op de gebeurtenissen van vorige week. We duiden het belang van de CVE-database en plaatsen het in een breder kader. Daarnaast gaan we ook in op de vraag of de huidige plek wel de beste is voor deze database. Moeten we niet naar een alternatieve locatie kijken voor het hosten? Is dat haalbaar? Zo ja, waar zou het passen?Luister snel naar Techzine Talks, met beeld op YouTube, zonder beeld hieronder en via je favoriete podcastapp.

Canon printer driver vulnerabilities enable Windows kernel exploitation. Astonishing cyber-security awareness from a household appliance manufacturer. France tries to hook 2.5 million school children with a Phishing test. Wordpress added an abuse prone feature in 2022. Guess what happened? Oracle? Is there something you'd like to tell us? Utah's governor just signed the App Store Accountability Act. Now what? AI bots hungry for new data are DDoSing FOSS projects. No Microsoft Account? No Microsoft Windows 11. Gmail claims it now offers E2EE. It kinda sorta does. Somewhat. A dreaded CVSS 10.0 was discovered in Apache Parquet. A bunch of terrific listener feedback.

We take advantage of April Fools to look at some of appsec's myths, mistakes, and behaviors that lead to bad practices. It's easy to get trapped in a status quo of chasing CVEs or discussing which direction to shift security. But scrutinizing decimal points in CVSS scores or rearranging tools misses the opportunity for more strategic thinking. We satirize some worst practices in order to have a more serious discussion about a future where more software is based on secure designs.

File Hashes Analysis with Power BI Guy explains in this diary how to analyze Cowrie honeypot file hashes using Microsoft's BI tool and what you may be able to discover using this tool. https://isc.sans.edu/diary/File%20Hashes%20Analysis%20with%20Power%20BI%20from%20Data%20Stored%20in%20DShield%20SIEM/31764 Apache Camel Vulnerability Apache released two patches for Camel in close succession. Initially, the vulnerability was only addressed for headers, but as Akamai discovered, it can also be exploited via query parameters. This vulnerability is trivial to exploit and leads to arbitrary code execution. https://www.akamai.com/blog/security-research/march-apache-camel-vulnerability-detections-and-mitigations Juniper Patches Junos Vulnerability Juniper patches an already exploited vulnerability in JunOS. However, to exploit the vulnerability, and attacker already needs privileged access. By exploiting the vulnerability, an attacker may completely compromised the device. https://supportportal.juniper.net/s/article/2025-03-Out-of-Cycle-Security-Bulletin-Junos-OS-A-local-attacker-with-shell-access-can-execute-arbitrary-code-CVE-2025-21590?language=en_US AMI Security Advisory AMI patched three vulnerabilities. One of the, an authentication bypass in Redfish, allows for a complete system compromise without authentication and is rated with a CVSS score of 10.0. https://go.ami.com/hubfs/Security%20Advisories/2025/AMI-SA-2025003.pdf

Sounil Yu joins us to kick things off with AI defenses: Enterprise AI search tools like Copilot for Microsoft 365 lack the in-depth access controls required to ensure that query responses align with the user's need-to-know boundaries. Without proper controls, these tools accelerate the discovery of improperly secured sensitive files within the organization. Knostic's solution ensures that enterprise data is safeguarded without slowing down innovation. By automating the detection and remediation of LLM data exposure, Knostic helps organizations mitigate the security, privacy, and compliance risks associated with AI chatbots and enterprise search tools. In the security news: The controversial pick for National Cyber Director, the not-so-controversial pick to lead CISA, complete with funding cuts, the controversial ESP32 backdoor that is not a backdoor but hidden features, Dark Storm takes down X, interesting use cases for LoRa, using AI to get your dream job, details on the biggest crypto heist in history, an EDR bypass and a 404 error, slipping through the cracks in CVSS, old school vulnerability disclosure in 2025, Rayhunter, a pen test that should not have been, JTAG and your Flipper Zero, a Linux webcam was used for what now?, and "Spatial-Domain Wireless Jamming with Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces"!

The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is a powerful tool for assessing the severity and impact of security vulnerabilities. In digital forensics and incident response, CVSS scores can provide critical context to prioritize investigations and focus on the most significant risks. This episode I will explore how leveraging CVSS scoring enhances vulnerability assessments during incident response, enabling teams to make data-driven decisions. 

Forecast: Cyber conditions are turbulent with two major Chinese state-sponsored storms impacting U.S. infrastructure, with aftershocks expected into mid-January. ‍ In today's episode of Storm Watch, we cover two major cybersecurity incidents that have significantly impacted U.S. infrastructure. The BeyondTrust breach, initially discovered in early December 2024, involved a compromised Remote Support SaaS API key that allowed attackers to reset passwords and access workstations remotely. The Treasury Department was notably affected, with attackers accessing unclassified documents in the Office of Financial Research and Office of Foreign Assets Control. The incident exposed critical vulnerabilities, including a severe command injection flaw with a CVSS score of 9.8, and over 13,500 BeyondTrust instances remain exposed online. The conversation then shifts to the extensive telecommunications breaches known as the Salt Typhoon campaign, where Chinese state actors successfully infiltrated nine major U.S. telecom companies. This sophisticated espionage operation gained the capability to geolocate millions of individuals and potentially record phone calls, though actual communication interception was limited to fewer than 100 high-profile targets. The breach revealed shocking security lapses, such as a single administrator account having access to over 100,000 routers and the use of primitive passwords like "1111" for management systems. Major carriers including AT&T, Verizon, and Lumen Technologies were among the affected companies, with varying degrees of impact and response effectiveness. T-Mobile stands out for their quick detection and mitigation of the attack. In response to these incidents, the FCC is preparing to vote on new cybersecurity regulations by mid-January 2025, while the White House has outlined key areas for improvement including configuration management, vulnerability management, network segmentation, and enhanced information sharing across the sector. The episode wraps up with insights from recent Censys Rapid Response posts and the latest GreyNoise blog entry about profiling benign internet scanners in 2024, along with VulnCheck's analysis of the most dangerous software weaknesses and a discussion of the Four-Faith Industrial Router vulnerability being exploited in the wild.
