English to Danish translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - IT (Information Technology) / Penetration Testing
English term or phrase: Tail
An interesting concept is the tail of information security, which argues that information security threats can be represented with a tail model.
The head of the tail represents more frequently occurring threat realizations, such as automated attacks.
As the tail drops off and the attack frequency decreases, the attacks become more targeted in nature.
However, the business impact of the threats in the tail part often have a relatively high business impact even though the these threats may statistically occur less frequently.
Many companies fail to perform adequate penetration testing, which addresses the threats in
the tail and only focus on threats in the head, as shown in the diagram.
