What is a Common Vulnerability in Cybersecurity?
A common vulnerability in cybersecurity is a flaw or weakness in a system, application, or network that can be exploited by malicious actors to gain unauthorized access, disrupt operations, or steal sensitive data.
What makes common vulnerabilities—like default configurations, weak passwords, and uneducated employees, as discussed in this checklist—so dangerous is that most businesses aren’t aware how big of a weakness they are. Cybercriminals, however, are very aware, and use these three attack vectors constantly to successfully attack businesses of all sizes.
Protecting Your Business from Attacks on Common Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities
The first step to protecting your business from these very common vulnerabilities is to become aware of the problem. That’s where this checklist, filled with everything you need to know on the 3 most common cybersecurity vulnerabilities, comes in.
