Discover the world of cybersecurity with our list of terms starting with L, from Layer 2 to Local Area Network (LAN) and Live Forensics.
Lateral Movement
Lateral Movement is the process of spreading or expanding an attack across a network or system by exploiting vulnerabilities or gaining access to new systems or devices, often used by attackers to escalate privileges and access sensitive data.
Log Analysis
Log Analysis is the process of reviewing and analyzing log data generated by systems, applications, or network devices to detect security incidents, anomalies, or performance issues, often used for security monitoring, incident response, and compliance.
Least Privilege
Least Privilege is the principle of providing users or systems with only the minimal level of access and permissions required to perform their tasks, often used as a security best practice to limit the impact of security incidents or breaches.
Logic Bomb
A Logic Bomb is a type of malicious code that is programmed to execute a specific action or payload when triggered by a specific event or condition, often used for sabotage, espionage, or financial gain.
Load Balancer
A Load Balancer is a hardware or software device used to distribute network traffic across multiple servers or resources to improve performance, availability, and scalability, often used in web applications, cloud computing, and data centers.
LDAP Injection
LDAP Injection is a type of injection attack that targets LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) servers or applications by inserting malicious input data to execute unauthorized commands or operations, often used by attackers to gain unauthorized access or extract sensitive information.
Layer 2
Layer 2, also known as the Data Link Layer, is the second layer of the OSI networking model that manages data communication between adjacent network devices, often involving the use of protocols such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi.
Live Forensics
Live Forensics is the process of collecting and analyzing digital evidence from a live or active system, often used in incident response or investigations to preserve volatile data and identify ongoing attacks or threats.
Local Area Network (LAN)
A Local Area Network (LAN) is a network of interconnected devices within a limited geographic area, often used in homes, schools, or businesses to facilitate communication, file sharing, and resource sharing.
