What is a zero day? A powerful but fragile weapon (Recyclage) |
Texte |
Zero-day definition
A zero day is a security flaw that has not yet been patched by the vendor and can be exploited and turned into a powerful weapon. Governments discover, purchase, and use zero days for military, intelligence and law enforcement purposes - a controversial practice, as it leaves society defenseless against other attackers who discover the same vulnerability.
