It's been a while since WikiLeaks and The Shadow Brokers published tools from the CIA (Vault 7) / NSA (The Equation Group).

Last week showed two sides of the coin. On one side is the effort of "three-letter agencies" to gather intelligence that helps them make strategic decisions. On the other side is the impact of their "tools" when a leak occurs.

Anyone with access to these tools can integrate them into their existing... which in the case of 0-day vulnerabilities is a very dangerous thing.

Pandora's box is opening. And it will get worse... The Shadow Brokers have announced there's more to come.
