Threat actors continue targeting Ivanti Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and other remote-access appliances with known vulnerabilities — often before patches are applied. Successful exploitation gives attackers VPN-level access without stealing a single password.
Who is affected
Multi-location businesses, firms with remote attorneys or clinicians, and organizations running older VPN concentrators that are not on a monthly patch cycle.
Why it matters
Edge-device breaches are silent — attackers can dwell inside a network for weeks before deploying ransomware or stealing email.
Recommended actions
- Inventory every remote-access appliance and confirm firmware matches the vendor's latest security advisory.
- Apply emergency patches immediately when CISA adds a product to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
- Disable unused VPN profiles and enforce MFA on all remote access paths.
- Plan replacement for hardware that no longer receives security updates.
