Exploited-in-the-Wild
Zero-Day Tracker — Active & Recently Disclosed Zero-Day Vulnerabilities | SECMONS
The SECMONS Zero-Day Tracker monitors publicly disclosed zero-day vulnerabilities and confirmed in-the-wild exploitation events. This tracker provides structured, verified intelligence for defenders.
Exploited in the Wild — What It Means, How It’s Confirmed, and Why It Changes Risk
“Exploited in the wild” indicates that a vulnerability is actively being used in real-world attacks outside controlled research environments. This SECMONS glossary entry explains what qualifies as in-the-wild exploitation, how vendors confirm it, and how defenders should respond operationally.
Zero-Day Vulnerability — What It Means, How It’s Used, and Why It’s High Risk
A zero-day vulnerability is a software flaw that is exploited before a patch is available or before the vendor is aware of it. This SECMONS glossary entry explains what qualifies as a zero-day, how it differs from n-day vulnerabilities, how zero-days are weaponized, and how defenders should respond.
