Fortinet FortiGate firewalls actively exploited after disclosure

SC Media

Steve Zurier

Gary Orenstein, chief customer officer at Bitwarden, said as Arctic Wolf noted in its Fortinet investigation, even when credentials are stored in hashed form, weak or reused passwords remain vulnerable to offline cracking through dictionary-based attacks.

Forbes

Tony Bradley

Bitwarden’s research shows that cybersecurity education has to start much earlier — and it can’t be one-size-fits-all.
