As stewards of the lush and vast landscape of security vulnerabilities, we felt obliged to share with you the top trending CVEs of the past month. So, without further ado, The Top Trending CVEs of January 2021:

The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) offers software developers, security and IT experts with a standardized process for evaluating vulnerabilities. CVSS can be used to evaluate the threat level of each vulnerability and then prioritize mitigation accordingly. This article explains the way CVSS works, which includes a review of its components and describes the importance of using a standardized process for evaluating vulnerabilities.

As the threat landscape changes, the ability to address the most common types of security vulnerabilities is vital for robust protection. As information becomes the most essential asset for an organization, cybersecurity gains much more importance. To successfully conduct your business and preserve the hard-earned reputation of your company, you need to protect your data from malicious attacks, data breaches and hackers. 

This article will offer a quick guide to vulnerabilities – what they are, how they can be exploited and the consequences of exploitation. A vulnerability is a weakness in an asset that can be exploited by cyber attackers. It’s a known issue that allows an attack to succeed.
