Cutting Through the Noise – WikiLeaks, CIA, Hacking, and Digital Edge
WikiLeaks has recently exposed that the CIA possessed the capability to hack into nearly every device you own. With all that we have learned from these leaks, Digital Edge wants to take the time to focus on is the “zero days” concept – which can be simply put as a weakness/hole in a system that allows a hacker to breach it before anyone even knows about this vulnerability. The act of reporting the vulnerability is known as “zero days”.
Once a hole in the system is found, it should be reported immediately, so it can be patched up before it’s exploited.
