Google’s in-house security team has warned that zero-day security threats are becoming a bigger risk than ever before.
In its annual round-up of the zero-day threat landscape, the Google Project Zero team noted that 58 distinct threats were identified in 2021, the biggest number seen since it began investigating back in 2014.
This is up from the 25 exploits discovered in 2020, and nearly double the amount seen for most years covered by the investigation.
