Proactive Security Vision Report

NetSPI's Proactive Security Vision Report examines vulnerability trends in web, mobile, thick client, cloud, and network attack surfaces. Key findings include:
• Web apps have more severe vulnerabilities than mobile and thick apps
• Internal networks have nearly 3x more exploitable vulnerabilities than external ones
• Government, non-profit, and healthcare sectors show the highest critical vulnerabilities
• Authorization bypass and SQL injection are top concerns
• Misconfigured IAM permissions are major cloud risks
• Network protocol attacks and weak passwords are significant internal threats
The report highlights remediation challenges, citing resource shortages and prioritization issues, and stresses the need for more investment in entry-level cybersecurity roles.
