  2. Attack surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_surface

    The attack surface of a software environment is the sum of the different points (for "attack vectors") where an unauthorized user (the "attacker") can try to enter data to, extract data, control a device or critical software in an environment. [1] [2] Keeping the attack surface as small as possible is a basic security measure. [3]

  3. Anti-surface warfare - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-surface_warfare

    Anti-surface warfare (ASuW or ASUW) is the branch of naval warfare concerned with the suppression of surface combatants. More generally, it is any weapons, sensors, or operations intended to attack or limit the effectiveness of an adversary's surface ships.

  4. Hardening (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardening_(computing)

    In computer security, hardening is usually the process of securing a system by reducing its attack surface, which is larger when a system performs more functions; in principle a single-function system is more secure than a multipurpose one.

  5. Dynamic application security testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_Application...

    Unlike static application security testing tools, DAST tools do not have access to the source code and therefore detect vulnerabilities by actually performing attacks. DAST tools allow sophisticated scans, detecting vulnerabilities with minimal user interactions once configured with host name, crawling parameters and authentication credentials.

  6. Angle of attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_attack

    As the angle of attack increases further, the upper surface flow becomes more fully separated and the lift coefficient reduces further. [7] Above this critical angle of attack, the aircraft is said to be in a stall. A fixed-wing aircraft by definition is stalled at or above the critical angle of attack rather than at or below a particular airspeed.

  7. Attack aircraft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_aircraft

    According to the current U.S. designation system, an attack aircraft (A) is designed primarily for air-to-surface (Attack: Aircraft designed to find, attack, and destroy land or sea targets) [7] missions (also known as "attack missions"), while a fighter category F incorporates not only aircraft designed primarily for air-to-air combat, but ...

    It was the kind of scene that the singer, Mahmoud al-Haddad, feared might be in jeopardy as Islamist rebels led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a group with origins in global jihad, were advancing ...

  9. Surface-to-surface missile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-to-surface_missile

    The first operational surface-to-surface missile was the V-1 flying bomb, it was powered by a pulsejet engine. Contemporary surface-to-surface missiles are usually guided . An unguided surface-to-surface missile is usually referred to as a rocket (for example, an RPG-7 or M72 LAW is an anti-tank rocket ), whereas a BGM-71 TOW or AT-2 Swatter is ...
