Active Attack - Answer✅✅A network attack where the hacker attempts to change
data or introduce malware
Adversary (threat agent) - Answer✅✅A threat to a system or an entity that initiates
an attack on a system
Asset - Answer✅✅Data contained in an information system; or a service provided

bandwidth; or an item of system equipment (i.e., a system component - hardware,
firmware, software, or documentation); or a facility that houses system operations
and equipment.
, Assurance - Answer✅✅The degree of confidence one has that the security
measures one has, both technical and operational, work as intended to protect the
system and the information it processes.
Attack - Answer✅✅An assault on system security that derives from an intelligent
threat; that is, an intelligent act that is a deliberate attempt (especially in the sense

of a system.
attack surface - Answer✅✅the area of an application that is available to users. both
those users who have been authenticated and those who have not
attack tree - Answer✅✅A branching, hierarchical data structure that represents a
set of potential techniques for exploiting security vulnerabilities
authentication - Answer✅✅verifying the identity of the person or device

minimizing the harm it can cause, or by discovering and reporting it so that
corrective action can be taken.
Data Confidentiality - Answer✅✅Assures that private or confidential information is
not made available or disclosed to unauthorized individuals
data integrity - Answer✅✅In a database or a collection of databases, the condition
