{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}--
{tableName=glossary, name=Risk Profile, description= Risk Profile is a term used to describe an individual's or organization's risk tolerance, which is the amount of risk they are willing to take in order to achieve a desired outcome. It is based on the individual's or organization's attitude towards risk and their capacity to bear risk. Risk profiles are used by financial advisors, insurance companies, and other professionals to assess the level of risk an individual or organization is willing to take in order to achieve a desired outcome.

{tableName=glossary, name=NIST Cybersecurity Standards, description= NIST Cybersecurity Standards are a set of standards and guidelines developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to help organizations protect their information and systems from cyber security threats. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) is the primary set of standards, which provides a comprehensive approach to managing and protecting an organization’s data and assets. The CSF is divided into five core functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover. Each of these functions is further divided into categories and subcategories, each of which contains a set of security controls and best practices. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework is intended to help organizations identify, assess, and manage risks associated with cyber threats, and to develop and implement a robust security program that meets the organization’s specific needs. In addition to the CSF, NIST also provides additional guidance, tools, and resources to help organizations implement and maintain a secure environment., topic=[{id=97620570503, createdAt=1673040885296, updatedAt=1715624266851, path='nist-cybersecurity-framework-csf', name=' NIST Cybersecurity Framework: A Comprehensive Guide', 1='{type=string, value=NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF)}', 2='{type=string, value= A comprehensive guide to the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) and how to use it to protect your organization's IT infrastructure and data.

{tableName=glossary, name=Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS), description= The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is a standard for measuring and rating the severity of computer system security vulnerabilities. It is a numerical score ranging from 0 to 10, with 10 being the most severe. CVSS is used to compare the severity of different vulnerabilities and prioritize remediation efforts. It considers factors such as the complexity of the attack, the type of attack, the impact of the attack, the privileges needed to exploit the vulnerability, and the availability of the exploit. CVSS is designed to be vendor-neutral, so it can be used to evaluate vulnerabilities in any type of system or application. The CVSS score provides a consistent way to communicate the severity of a vulnerability, making it easier to compare and prioritize different vulnerabilities., 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.
