Artificial Intelligence (AI) has quickly become an integral part of modern workflows, with AI-powered applications like copilots, chatbots, and large-scale language models streamlining automation, decision-making, and data processing. However, these same tools introduce significant security risks—often in ways organizations fail to anticipate.
Recently, Palo Alto Networks identified and patched a critical zero-day vulnerability in their next-generation firewalls (NGFWs). This vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2024-0012, allowed attackers to execute code on vulnerable devices remotely. This vulnerability has been actively exploited in attacks dubbed “Operation Lunar Peek.”
A recent Washington Post report sent shockwaves through the cybersecurity landscape, revealing that Chinese government-backed hackers have infiltrated at least two major US internet service providers (ISPs) and several smaller ones.

Of all the challenges facing the modern SOC, two stand out among the most persistent and difficult to overcome: an overwhelming volume of false positive alerts and an alarming escalation in zero-day and novel threats that are often imperceptible by legacy systems.
The number of zero-day exploit discoveries hit record numbers in 2021, according to Google Project Zero. Instances of “in-the-wild 0-days” were up nearly double versus 2020, when only 25 0-day exploits were detected. In 2021, the total was 58.
