State of (in)security - Week 17, 2025
During the week of April 21-28, 2025, there was an increase in cybersecurity advisories (19, up from 10 the previous week) and a slight decrease in incidents (16, down from 18), with a total of 396,281 impacted individuals across various sectors including healthcare, government, and telecommunications, primarily due to human bad security behavior, system misconfiguration exploits, and third party compromise.
**Be very conscious about third party vulnerabilities. There are a lot of vulnerable libraries that we are using, and even some that hackers have actively breached and injected malicious code. Keep third party code in your risk plan, and try to monitor it regularly. It's hard, but checking will let you sleep better.**
