A new study released today by cybersecurity firm NetRise Inc. warns that vulnerability risks associated with network equipment are far greater than previously understood. NetRise’s third-quarter supply chain visibility and risk study for network equipment, based on the analysis of more than 100 different networking equipment devices, found that traditional network-based vulnerability scanners significantly underreport the true extent of software vulnerabilities in critical networking devices such as routers, switches, firewalls, virtual private network gateways and wireless access points.
