In the ever-evolving world of cybersecurity, zero-day vulnerabilities pose one of the most critical threats to organizations, governments, and everyday users. These flaws are called "zero-day" because they are discovered by attackers before developers or security professionals become aware—leaving zero days to react or deploy a fix. In this article, we'll explore what zero-day vulnerabilities are, the risks they pose, and how you can defend against them.
A zero-day vulnerability is a software flaw unknown to those who should be interested in its mitigation.
Zero-days can be exploited by attackers before a fix is available, making them highly dangerous.
