Cybersecurity Terminology Glossary

Essential concepts for understanding modern threat surfaces and defense-in-depth controls.

EDR vs. XDR

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) monitors individual endpoints; Extended Detection and Response (XDR) unifies telemetry across endpoints, cloud workloads, email, and networks.

NIST CSF 2.0

The National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework: organizes risk management around Govern, Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover.

IAM & MFA

Identity and Access Management controls digital identities, while Multi-Factor Authentication requires two or more independent credentials before granting system access.

MITRE ATT&CK Framework

A globally accessible knowledge base of adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) based on real-world observations, used to evaluate SOC coverage.

DLP (Data Loss Prevention)

Strategies and tools that detect and prevent unauthorized exfiltration of sensitive organizational data across endpoints, networks, and cloud storage.

Next-Gen Firewalls (NGFW)

Stateful firewalls enhanced with Layer 7 application awareness, integrated intrusion prevention (IPS), and encrypted traffic inspection capabilities.
