Storm Watch | Cyber News | HTTP2 Vulnerability, Clorox Cyber Attack, Grey Noise Sift

Summary: This episode covers a Microsoft report stating that basic security hygiene could protect against 99% of attacks, with 80% of ransomware compromises occurring via unmanaged devices. It also discusses a Confluence zero-day that lets remote attackers create new users, a cyber attack on Clorox expected to cause a significant sales drop potentially timed to flu season, and an HTTP/2 denial-of-service vulnerability whose best current protection is a DDoS mitigation service.

What's compelling: The Confluence flaw creates new user accounts during exploitation, so patching alone leaves unauthorized accounts behind unless user accounts are audited afterward. And with 80% of ransomware compromises arriving through unmanaged devices, the endpoints outside your inventory are the ones carrying the risk.
