INE Security: Real-world practice with the latest CVEs is essential for transforming security teams from reactive to proactive defenders. With over 26,000 new CVEs documented in the past year, security teams are drowning in vulnerability alerts while facing exploit windows that have compressed to hours in many cases.

This audio is presented by Hacker Noon, where anyone can learn anything about any technology. Continuous CVE practice closes critical gap between vulnerability alerts and effective defense, by Cyber Newswire. Kerry, North Carolina, May 14, 2025, Cyber Newswire, INE Security, a global leader in hands on cybersecurity training and certifications, today highlighted how ongoing real-world practice with the latest CVEs, common vulnerabilities and exposures, is essential for transforming security teams from reactive to proactive defenders. With over 26,000 new CVEs documented in the past year, security teams are drowning in vulnerability alerts while facing exploit windows that have

compressed to ours in many cases. Greater than Reading CVE bulletins is not the same as knowing how to stop the attack, greater than said Dara Warren, CEO at INE Security. Our skill-dive platform gives greater than practitioners hands-on experience with real vulnerabilities in contained greater than environments, cutting incident response times when these same issues hit greater than production. This practical approach delivers far more value than traditional greater than security certifications alone. SkillDive is INE Security's risk-free technical environment

featuring exclusive labs not found in learning paths and courses. SkillDive's Vulnerabilities Lab Collection offers a continuously updated library of labs specifically designed to provide hands-on practice with actual CVEs, allowing security practitioners, including those preparing for pentester certifications, to experience both the exploitation and mitigation of current real-world threats in a safe environment. CVEs, from Bulletin to DEFENSE CVEs are the standard identifiers for known vulnerabilities, but many security teams struggle to implement effective mitigations at scale, even those with SEC Plus and other entry-level certifications. Common challenges include Risk prioritization across hundreds of monthly CVEs Testing mitigations without impacting production

Adapting defenses to diverse system configurations. Building response muscle memory that works under pressure. Getting ahead of the threat curve instead of constantly reacting. Practice today's threats. Prevent tomorrow's breaches. INE Security's Skill Dive Vulnerabilities Lab Collection delivers exclusive vulnerability labs not available in standard security training. Monthly CVE updates focusing on high-impact vulnerabilities. Isolated practice environment for both offensive and defensive techniques.

Complete severity coverage from critical zero days to common misconfigurations. Practical exploitation and defense experience that transfers directly to production incidents. Greater than, when a critical CVE drops, you don't have time to theorize," said Tracy Wallace, director of content at INE Security. Teams with hands-on practice greater than respond significantly faster because they've seen similar attack patterns greater than before. Log 4 Shell, CVE-202-144-228, was a perfect example. Practitioners who greater than had experience with JNDI

injection attacks were able to implement effective greater than mitigations within hours, while others took days or even weeks to fully greater than remediate. Real benefits for security teams Skill Dive delivers immediate advantages for practitioners. Develop attack pattern recognition that speeds incident response. Understand attack chains beyond what bulletins describe. Practice team coordination for high-pressure security events. Identify defensive gaps before attackers find them. Build skills that directly translate to career advancement.

SecOps teams, security analysts, and IT admins get exactly what certification courses miss. Hands-on practice with real-world vulnerabilities. Greater than, security professionals who regularly drill on current vulnerabilities become greater than exponentially more valuable to their organizations, said Wallace. The best greater than defenders understand both the attack and defense sides of the equation. High-impact CVEs in the Skill Dive collection the platform features hands-on labs for the most actively exploited vulnerabilities in enterprise environments, including Open Metadata Authentication Bypass, CVE-202428255, exploit the target machine running Open Metadata by bypassing the authentication and gaining remote code execution, RCE. Calibre RCE, CVE-20246782, exploit the remote code execution vulnerability in caliber,

leading to unauthorized system access. Log4Shell, CVE-202144228, practice identifying and remediating this critical remote code execution vulnerability that continues to plague Java applications across multiple sectors. Spring4Shell, CVE-202222965, gain hands-on experience with this widely exploited RCE vulnerability affecting Spring Framework applications. Greater than, we continuously track which vulnerabilities are most actively exploited, greater than said Wallace. Our collection prioritizes CVEs with the highest real-world greater than impact, not just theoretical severity ratings. Proactive security through

deliberate practice The Skill Dive approach includes, monthly updates aligned with emerging threat patterns. Realistic environments mirroring production systems, practical documentation focused on effective mitigations, continuous evolution based on real-world attack trends. Recent lab additions include other top exploited vulnerabilities such as cacti import packages RCE, CVE 202425641, CV20241561, Caliber Arbitrary File Read CV20246781, Graylog Information Exposure CV202424824, and Navidrome SQL Injection CV202447062 Greater than, security teams that regularly practice with new vulnerabilities stop more greater than breaches, period, said Wallace.

Practice transforms defense from constant greater than firefighting into strategic advantage. Availability individual subscriptions to Skilldive are available now.
