{tableName=glossary, name=Data Exfiltration, description= Data exfiltration is the unauthorized transfer of data from a secure system or network to an external location or device. It is a malicious activity typically performed by cybercriminals to steal sensitive information, such as financial data, intellectual property, or personally identifiable information (PII). Data exfiltration can occur through a variety of methods, including malware, phishing, and malicious insiders. Malware is malicious software designed to infiltrate a system and steal data, while phishing involves sending fraudulent emails in an attempt to gain access to the target system or network. Malicious insiders are individuals with authorized access to the system or network who use their access to steal data. Data exfiltration can also be caused by misconfigured systems or networks, which allow malicious actors to gain access to the data without authorization. Regardless of the method used, data exfiltration can have serious consequences for organizations, including financial losses, reputational damage, and compliance violations., topic=null, hs_path=data-exfiltration}--

It provides a framework of specifications and best practices for establishing, implementing, operating, monitoring, reviewing, maintaining and improving an ISMS. It is designed to help organizations ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of their information assets. The standard is divided into 14 clauses and is based on a process approach, with the main focus being on risk management. It requires organizations to identify and manage risks to their information assets, and to establish controls to mitigate those risks. ISO/IEC 27001 also requires organizations to define security policies and procedures, and to ensure that those policies and procedures are followed. ISO/IEC 27018 is a code of practice for the protection of personal data in the cloud. It provides a set of security controls and procedures that cloud service providers must implement when processing personal data. The code is based on the ISO/IEC 27001 ISMS and is designed to ensure that personal data is adequately protected and managed. It covers areas such as data security, data privacy, data security breach notification, data transfer, and data retention., 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=Spear Phishing, description= Spear Phishing is a type of cyber attack that involves sending fraudulent emails or messages that appear to come from a trusted source in order to gain access to sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, financial data, or other confidential information. It is often used to target specific individuals or organizations, making it more difficult to detect than other types of phishing attacks. The attacker typically uses personal information gathered from the Internet or other sources to create a more convincing message that is tailored to the recipient. The attacker may also use social engineering techniques to further convince the recipient to open the message or click on a malicious link. Spear phishing is a serious threat as it can be used to gain access to confidential information and can lead to identity theft, fraud, and other malicious activities., topic=null, hs_path=spear-phishing}--
