Key Points
Keeping an eye on the latest vulnerabilities is one of the things we do best at Intruder.
Our Security team taps into a variety of sources to monitor emerging threats and keep our customers safe. So, when one of our go-to resources, cvetrends.com, shut down last year, it left us with no choice but to build our own - one that could serve not only our needs but also the wider infosec community.
Today, we’re excited to introduce you to Intel: a free resource designed to help you stay up-to-date on the top trending CVEs and latest vulnerability intelligence, with added insights from our security experts.
Read on to learn all about it or check it out now to see what CVEs are trending on social media today.
What is Intel?
Intel is a free vulnerability intelligence platform developed by Intruder to help you stay ahead of the latest threats. It shows you the top 10 CVEs trending on social media over the past 24 hours, complete with trending graphs and its own ‘hype score’ to give you a clear sense of the buzz around each vulnerability.
Intel also provides a comprehensive CVE database, aggregating insights from a range of trusted sources to provide you with the latest information, including risk scores, known exploits, and more.
One of the best parts, Intruder’s Security team contributes directly to Intel through Insights, where they share their expert commentary on whether the most hyped CVEs are worth worrying about, or just over-hyped vulnerabilities with a snazzy name but no bite.
