In the aftermath of two headline-grabbing attacks over the past six months, more high-profile security researchers and analysts are beginning to cast a wary eye at internal systems and technology tools.
The SolarWinds breach, a compromise of third-party software used to protect networks in the U.S. government and four-fifths of Fortune 500 companies, was discovered in December and continues to play out in terms of damage. That was followed by the discovery in March that four previously unknown or “zero day” or yet-undiscovered vulnerabilities had been found in Microsoft Exchange Server software, which is used by 57% of Cloud Exchange mailboxes and 43% of on-premises clients.
