Cyber attacks exploiting vulnerabilities in unpatched legacy systems, via consumer applications such as TikTok, and originating from friendly countries may be a bigger risk to the average organisation than attacks through novel zero-days conducted by Chinese or Russian APT groups, according to a report produced by secure access service edge (SASE) specialist Cato Networks.
In compiling the SASE Threat research report, the Tel Aviv-based network security firm said it found strong evidence that mainstream preconceptions of enterprise security and network usage are frequently highly inaccurate.
