The Growing Threat of Zero-Day Attacks

Breaches due to Zero-Day attacks are one of the most formidable attack vectors facing cloud environments today. These attacks exploit unknown vulnerabilities in software and cloud misconfigurations, giving cybercriminals the ability to breach systems before developers can create patches.

Bar chart comparing known and unknown vulnerabilities by cost in million USD. Known unpatched vulnerability costs 4.17 million dollars, representing 6% of breaches. Unknown zero-day vulnerability costs 4.45 million dollars, representing 11% of breaches.

The most alarming aspect of Zero-Day attacks is their surprising speed.

Attackers are moving faster than ever while current solutions are too slow to act.

Attackers, on average, discover and exploit vulnerabilities in

With InstaSecure Preventive Cloud Controls, Zero Day attacks are prevented despite vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.

InstaSecure provides safe isolation from both public exposure and multi-tenancy.

Not only are threat actors prevented from launching a Zero Day attack from most locations, but the number of overall internet exposed vulnerabilities (including Zero Day) are vastly reduced.
