I try to UNDERSTAND the security implications of each platform,
irrespective of the (admittedly brilliant) marketing propaganda.
Do you know of any comprehensive current zero-day platform comparisons?
The best I could find is this reliable GTIG blog, published in May 2025.
<
https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/2024-zero-day-trends>
75 known-to-be exploited 0-days disclosed in 2024 across all platforms.
9 were on mobile devices, and 66 were not.
4 were in Android (plus 3 which were in 3rd-party components)
2 were in iOS (plus 3 in WebKit, which is part of iOS & macOS)
22 were in Microsoft Windows (plus 7 in chrome and 1 in Firefox)
What`s interesting is that iOS and Android are roughly about half a dozen
while Windows has roughly 4 times the number of zero-day exploits in 2024.
What other comparative data are you aware of so that we all get a better
current picture of the zero-day exploits (in the wild) between platforms?
Unfortunately, there`s overlap (e.g., in the browsers) so I`m not sure
where the other 33 known zero-day exploits in the wild were found but the
blog mentions 44% of 2024 zero-days targeted 18 unique enterprise products,
which is just about 33. Also the blog says 20 zero-days were found in
security & network appliances (which can be part of Enterprise Products).
So... probably...
33 were found in 18 unique Enterprise Products (including appliances)
Outside of misleading (but brilliant) marketing, do you have better data?
--
Note these GTIG counts DIFFER from CISA KEV catalog *cumulative* zero days,
where iOS has about 1-1/2 times more zero-days exploited than Android does.
