Emerging Attack Vectors in Cyber Security
In Cyber Security, knowing about attack vectors is key to keeping information safe and systems secure. An attack vector is a way that cybercriminals use to break into a network, system, or application by taking advantage of weaknesses. Attack vectors refer to the various paths or methods that attackers use to gain unauthorized access to a system, network, or application to exploit vulnerabilities, steal data, or cause damage.
