Once hackers have figured out the commands or written the code to exploit it, they can scamper through the world's computer networks undetected until the day the underlying flaw is discovered. Zero day exploitation is the most direct application of the cliche 'knowledge is power if you know how to use it."-Nicole Perlroth, This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends: The Cyberweapons Arms Race
