We built the world map because it looks cool. But the real shape of the internet is IP ranges, not countries. That’s what our next visualizer maps: threats across all of IPv4 (Spoiler)

36% of exploited CVEs were attacked within a day of publication. Another 27% within the week. CISA gives US federal agencies 72 hours to fix the most urgent ones. For more than a third, the attack starts first. What our network saw in 2026 👇 #cybersecurity #vulnmanagement

PHP2Shell hasn't turned into mass exploitation. Not yet. 5 days of CrowdSec Network data: the first attempts were blocked before the CVEs were even published, and half of the 1,187 IPs sent a single request. What happened, and what to watch 👇

When you can patch PHP2Shell depends on your PHP version: 8.2–8.5: today 7.4–8.1: source backports only 5.4–7.3: nothing from the PHP project ~48% of PHP sites have no full release to upgrade to. How to cover the wait 👇

Can't patch every box today? The CrowdSec WAF has free, tentative virtual patches for both CVEs: cscli appsec-rules install crowdsecurity/vpatch-CVE-2026-109618 cscli appsec-rules install crowdsecurity/vpatch-CVE-2026-109619 A stopgap, not a fix: still update PHP.

What is bot detection, in 30 seconds? 🤖 It's how your site tells real visitors from automated ones before they can scrape your content, buy out your stock, or hammer your login page. CrowdSec's WAF Bot Detection does it with fingerprinting and proof of work, without getting in the way of real customers. Watch the quick explainer 👇 Set it up: docs.crowdsec.net/docs/appse… #WAF #botdetection #cybersecurity #opensource

CrowdSec saw the first requests matching CVE-2026-88771 on September 22, five days before Citrix published it with a fix (and before @watchtowrcyber shared details). It's a CVSS 9.5 flaw in NetScaler ADC and Gateway: no login, default configuration, root on the box. Our signal counts are low, but don't read that as low risk. Careful operators pick their targets first, and two of the addresses we saw went after this CVE and nothing else. Patching won't remove anyone already inside. The full story is in this week's Threat Alert 👉crowdsec.net/vulntracking-re… #cve #cve202688771 #threatalert #cybersecurity

On the night of 7–8 October, a drone attack hit Yandex's data center in Sasovo, Russia. Our sensors saw it from the other side of the internet: the YandexBot traffic hitting our network went dark. Here's what the CrowdSec map showed 👇 youtube.com/shorts/GJqUkh4Dw…

Two visitors hit your site. Same browser, same clicks, same speed. One of them is a bot. Which one? CrowdSec 1.8's WAF can tell, and on October 29, our experts will show you how, live, along with everything else in 1.8. 📅 October 29, 4 PM CET Get a reminder → youtube.com/live/rHKs3yAquQo #webinar #WAF #botdetection #cybersecurity
