Hello forum, The current threat landscape suggests a heightened risk of credential theft exploiting misconfigured services. We implemented something similar using NDR sensors and found that needs improvement. Any thoughts on this?

Based on the attack pattern, we've enhanced our mobile with additional threshold. After applying the vendor patch, we confirmed that security flaw is no longer exploitable. After applying the hotfix, we confirmed that code vulnerability is no longer vulnerable.
