Home » Cyberattacks, Application Vulnerabilities Increase by 40 Percent in September 2019
In the month of September, there was a 40-percent increase in total cyberattacks compared to August, returning to July levels, according to a Contrast Labs September 2019 AppSec Intelligence Report.
The most prevalent serious vulnerabilities across the applications observed were Cross-Site Scripting, XML External Entity Injection and Cross-Site Request Forgery. One percent of these attacks were connected to a vulnerability within an application, representing a .7 percent decrease from last month. The other 99 percent were probes and did not connect with a corresponding vulnerability within the target application, says the report.
