Recurring Themes Present (And Missing) From Hacker Summer Camp | Grey Noise Blog
Summary: GreyNoise's review of Black Hat and DEF CON 2023 identifies recurring themes: low-level processor flaws like Downfall that require downtime and carry performance costs, cloud providers that no longer warrant baseline trust, and LLMs trained with no thought for safety. The post also notes that six weeks before Black Hat, at least one major vulnerability hit a core enterprise IT component every week, and that hundreds of organizations were hurt by MOVEit exploits.
Bottom line: Vulnerability management has become an untenable weekly cycle for most organizations, even resource-rich ones, and the post argues the C-suite is now on the hook when cyber things go south.
