What is a Security Loophole?

In the context of the web, a security loophole is a vulnerability within networked computing systems. A loophole allows for unauthorized access to confidential data or the surreptitious reading and collection of sensitive information.

With a security loophole, computing safeguards are rendered useless because they are bypassed—if they were even in place to begin with. All this represents a major security problem for everyone affected, including governments, corporations, and individual people who all suffer as a consequence.

The losses are staggering as malicious hackers, scammers, and other nefarious bad actors exploit loopholes in computing systems to enrich themselves at everyone's expense.
