Modat researchers have identified major global security risks from misconfigured and insufficiently secured access management systems (AMS) across various sectors. Vulnerabilities in over 49,000 devices pose serious risks to data integrity and physical security. The exposure has led to the leakage of sensitive employee information and compromised the physical security of numerous organizations.
