{tableName=glossary, name=Zero Day, description= Zero Day: A zero-day (also known as a zero-hour or zero-minute) vulnerability is a computer security vulnerability that is unknown to those who would be interested in mitigating the vulnerability (including the vendor of the target system). It is usually discovered by an independent security researcher or hacker and then made public, sometimes with working exploits. These vulnerabilities are extremely dangerous because they can be used by malicious actors to gain unauthorized access to a system or network, allowing them to steal data, install malware, or even take control of the system. Zero-day vulnerabilities are difficult to protect against because they are unknown to the target system's vendor, leaving the system vulnerable until a patch is released., topic=[{id=97620570512, createdAt=1673040885353, updatedAt=1683947931775, path='vulnerability-management', name=' Vuln Mgmt 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.

{tableName=glossary, name=Vulnerability Scanning, description= Vulnerability scanning is a process of identifying, quantifying, and prioritizing (ranking) the vulnerabilities in a computer system, network, or application. It is an automated process that uses software to scan a system for known weaknesses and security issues. Vulnerability scanning can help organizations identify and address potential security risks before an attacker has the opportunity to exploit them. It is a critical step in the overall security process, as it allows organizations to understand the attack surface of their system, identify potential vulnerabilities, and prioritize their efforts to address them. Vulnerability scanning can also be used to detect unauthorized changes to a system, detect malicious activity, and monitor compliance with security policies. It is an important part of any security program and is often used in conjunction with other security measures, such as penetration testing and risk assessment., topic=[{id=97620570512, createdAt=1673040885353, updatedAt=1683947931775, path='vulnerability-management', name=' Vuln Mgmt 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.

{tableName=glossary, name=SSAE 16, description= Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16 is an attestation standard issued by the Auditing Standards Board (ASB) of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). It replaces the previous standard, Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70, and is used by service organizations to demonstrate their internal controls, processes, and systems are suitably designed and operating effectively. SSAE 16 is a service auditor's attestation that a service organization has been through an in-depth evaluation of their control objectives and control activities, and the results of that evaluation have been reported. It requires the service auditor to obtain an understanding of the service organization's control environment, assess the risk of material misstatement, test the operating effectiveness of the controls, and obtain sufficient appropriate evidence to support the opinion on the design and operating effectiveness of the controls. SSAE 16 also requires management of the service organization to provide written assertions regarding the design and operating effectiveness of the controls. The service auditor must then evaluate the evidence obtained and the assertions made by management, and provide a report that expresses an opinion on the fairness of the presentation of the description of the service organization's system, and the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness of the controls., topic=null, hs_path=ssae-16}--
