September episode of “In The Trend of VM”: 7 CVEs, fake reCAPTCHA, lebanese pagers, VM and IT annual bonuses. Starting this month, we decided to slightly expand the topics of the videos and increase their duration. I cover not only the trending vulnerabilities of September, but also social engineering cases, real-world vulnerability exploitation, and practices of vulnerability management process. At the end we announce a contest of questions about Vulnerability Management with gifts. 🎁
