Privacy and Security Toward More Secure Software
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.
