Grey Noise 2025 Mass Internet Exploitation Report: Attackers Are Moving Faster Than Ever — Are You Ready?
Summary: GreyNoise's 2025 Mass Internet Exploitation Report states that in 2024 attackers automated vulnerability exploitation at scale, with scanning and exploitation attempts observed across thousands of IPs. Founder Andrew Morris said attackers scan the entire internet because it is quick and cheap, and that many of the most exploited CVEs in 2024 are years old.
What's compelling: GreyNoise reports that attackers care less about CVSS scores or KEV lists and go after whatever is exposed immediately, so patching priorities built on severity rankings may not match what is actually being exploited.
