{tableName=glossary, name=Gartner And The Magic Quadrant, description= Gartner And The Magic Quadrant is an analytical tool used by businesses and organizations to evaluate the competitive landscape of a particular industry or market. The tool, developed by Gartner, a research and advisory firm, is designed to help organizations identify the most competitive vendors and products in their respective markets. The tool is based on a four-quadrant model that evaluates vendors and products on two axes: their ability to execute and their completeness of vision. The ability to execute axis is based on the vendor’s product or service, its overall market share, the quality of its customer service, and its financial stability. The completeness of vision axis is based on the vendor’s understanding of the market, its innovation and its ability to meet customer needs. Vendors and products are then plotted on the Magic Quadrant based on their scores in both categories. The Magic Quadrant can help organizations identify the most promising vendors and products in their respective markets, enabling them to make informed decisions about which vendors and products to invest in., topic=null, hs_path=gartner-and-the-magic-quadrant}--

It helps organizations manage the security of assets such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details, or information entrusted to them by third parties. ISO/IEC 27002 is a code of practice for information security management that provides guidelines for the selection, implementation, and management of security controls to protect information assets. It is based on the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycle and provides advice on the best practices for managing information security. It is designed to be used in conjunction with ISO/IEC 27001, but can also be used as a standalone guide., topic=[{id=97620570500, createdAt=1673040885276, updatedAt=1684824913644, path='iso-27001', name=' ISO 27001 Guide: A Comprehensive Guide', 1='{type=string, value=ISO 27001}', 2='{type=string, value=This guide provides a comprehensive overview of the ISO 27001 standard, including the requirements, implementation, and certification.

{tableName=glossary, name=Passive Scanning, description= Passive scanning is a type of network security scanning technique used to detect potential security threats on a computer network without sending any packets or initiating any direct communication with the target systems. Passive scanning is a non-intrusive way to assess a network's security posture by gathering information passively from the network traffic. This technique allows the scanning system to observe the traffic on the network without being detected or interfering with the normal flow of traffic. Passive scanning is useful for identifying weak points in a network's security as well as detecting malicious activity, such as malware, unauthorized access, or malicious code execution. Passive scanning can also help identify potential vulnerabilities in the network infrastructure, such as unpatched systems or unencrypted communication., topic=[{id=97620570512, createdAt=1673040885353, updatedAt=1715624422147, path='vulnerability-management', name='Vulnerability Management Guide: Learn to Protect Your Business', 1='{type=string, value=Vulnerability Management}', 2='{type=string, value= Learn how to identify, assess, and manage security vulnerabilities in your organization with this comprehensive guide to Vulnerability Management.
