Zero-Day Exploit - Definition
Zero-Day Exploit refers to malicious hackers who try to crack through the defenses of a product on the same day that news of a vulnerability breaks out and/or an ensuing patch is to be released. It is common practice for software and security vendors to publicly announce any flaws in their products, which then becomes known to these fast acting exploiters. The resulting zero-day attacks affect users who haven’t applied a patch to fix the announced vulnerability.
