The Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification or CAPEC is a catalog of known cyber security attack patterns [1] to be used by cyber security professionals to prevent attacks. [ 2 ]
Tactics are the “why” of an attack technique. The framework consists of 14 tactics categories consisting of "technical objectives" of an adversary. [2] Examples include privilege escalation and command and control. [3] These categories are then broken down further into specific techniques and sub-techniques. [3]
Attack Patterns are structured very much like structure of Design patterns. Using this format is helpful for standardizing the development of attack patterns and ensures that certain information about each pattern is always documented the same way. A recommended structure for recording Attack Patterns is as follows: Pattern Name
Direct attacks almost never work, one must first upset the enemy's equilibrium, fix weakness and attack strength, Eight rules of strategy: 1) adjust your ends to your means, 2) keep your object always in mind, 3) choose the line of the least expectation, 4) exploit the line of least resistance, 5) take the line of operations which offers the ...
The known-plaintext attack (KPA) is an attack model for cryptanalysis where the attacker has access to both the plaintext (called a crib) and its encrypted version . These can be used to reveal secret keys and code books. The term "crib" originated at Bletchley Park, the British World War II decryption operation, where it was defined as:
Another method is to define what normal usage of the system comprises using a strict mathematical model, and flag any deviation from this as an attack. This is known as strict anomaly detection. [3] Other techniques used to detect anomalies include data mining methods, grammar based methods, and Artificial Immune System. [2]
Tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) is an essential concept in terrorism and cyber security studies. [1] The role of TTPs in terrorism analysis is to identify individual patterns of behavior of a particular terrorist activity, or a particular terrorist organisation, and to examine and categorize more general tactics and weapons used by a particular terrorist activity, or a particular ...
A specially noted variant of the chosen-ciphertext attack is the "lunchtime", "midnight", or "indifferent" attack, in which an attacker may make adaptive chosen-ciphertext queries but only up until a certain point, after which the attacker must demonstrate some improved ability to attack the system. [5] The term "lunchtime attack" refers to the ...
