Lateral movement refers to the techniques that cyber attackers, or threat actors, use to progressively move through a network as they search for the key data and assets that are ultimately the target of their attack campaigns.
Disabling or evading security measures. 43 Credential Access: Obtaining credentials to access systems or data. 17 Discovery: Identifying additional systems or information within a network. 32 Lateral Movement: Moving laterally within a compromised network. 9 Collection: Collecting data from compromised systems. 10 Command and Control
The cyber kill chain is the process by which perpetrators carry out cyberattacks. [2] Lockheed Martin adapted the concept of the kill chain from a military setting to information security , using it as a method for modeling intrusions on a computer network . [ 3 ]
Cyber threat hunting is a proactive cyber defence activity. It is "the process of proactively and iteratively searching through networks to detect and isolate advanced threats that evade existing security solutions."
STRIDE is a model for identifying computer security threats [1] developed by Praerit Garg and Loren Kohnfelder at Microsoft. [2] It provides a mnemonic for security threats in six categories. [3] The threats are: Spoofing; Tampering; Repudiation; Information disclosure (privacy breach or data leak) Denial of service; Elevation of privilege [4]
In computer security, a side-channel attack is any attack based on extra information that can be gathered because of the fundamental way a computer protocol or algorithm is implemented, rather than flaws in the design of the protocol or algorithm itself (e.g. flaws found in a cryptanalysis of a cryptographic algorithm) or minor, but potentially ...
Client-to-Gateway: Protects servers behind a gateway, mitigating lateral movement attacks within a network or on the internet. Client-to-Server: Similar to client-to-gateway, but the protected server runs the SDP software directly. Server-to-Server: Secures communication between servers offering APIs.
A cyberattack can be defined as any attempt by an individual or organization "using one or more computers and computer systems to steal, expose, change, disable or eliminate information, or to breach computer information systems, computer networks, and computer infrastructures". [2]
