SAN DIEGO, Jan. 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- ESET, a global leader in digital security, today announced its upcoming webinar "A False Sense of Security? Reevaluating Zero-Day Threats," taking place January 26, 2023 at 1:00 PM EDT. Presented by ESET's Chief Security Evangelist Tony Anscombe, the webinar will provide insights into zero-day vulnerabilities, including tactics used by bad actors, and a fresh look at best practices for businesses, cybersecurity defenders and IT administrators.

"An exploited zero-day vulnerability can exist in the wild for months before being detected, making it difficult to defend against," said Anscombe. "What's more, the current practices surrounding zero-day vulnerabilities and exploits might be handing criminals an advantage. This webinar will discuss risk management recommendations and provide insight on tactics for companies to improve their defense posture, including new rules and mitigation strategies."
