Abstract
LAST YEAR, THE National Institute Standards and Technology (NIST) added 7,937 vulnerabilities to the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), up from 5,174 in 2013. That is approximately 22 per day, or almost one every hour. Of these, 1,912 (24%) were labeled “high severity” and 7,243 (91%) “high” or “medium.”7 Simply put, they cannot be ignored.
