Recent security research has revealed that over 40% of cloud environments are vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) attacks, which could lead to complete account takeovers. This alarming statistic stems from a series of five vulnerabilities discovered in the Ingress Nginx Controller for Kubernetes, one of which is classified as critical. The findings are part of a broader trend, as a report by SecurityScorecard indicates that 35.5% of all breaches in 2024 were linked to vendor vulnerabilities, with ransomware groups increasingly exploiting third-party access. Additionally, a survey of 5,000 cybersecurity executives found that only 1% had received full compensation from their insurance carriers for filed cyber insurance claims in the past year, highlighting ongoing challenges in the cybersecurity landscape.
