An attacker may be able to elevate privileges by modifying the Windows registry.

Uncontrolled search path in the installer software for some Intel(r) NUC Kit Wireless Adapter drivers for Windows 10 before version 22.40 may allow an authenticated attacker to potentially install an updated version of the driver that may contain a malicious component with the same function as the original driver.

Detect and respond to network attacks

It's difficult to detect and respond to network attacks that are happening in the background. In order for a security analyst to understand what is happening, they have to have visibility into the full context of the attack. An open source tool called Metasploit gives security professionals a way to take control of their own network and detect these attacks.

Metasploit is an open-source software project for developing, testing and using exploit code against computer networks in order to help assess their security posture, test the defenses of an organization’s computing infrastructure, and demonstrate how vulnerable it is against various types of intrusions.

What is Bounds Checking?

Bounds checking is a programming construct used to prevent unsafe operations from one program from affecting other programs. The idea is that a piece of code should be able to read and write data without the risk of corrupting or overwriting any other data.
