"Embrace, extend, and extinguish" (EEE), [1] also known as "embrace, extend, and exterminate", [2] is a phrase that the U.S. Department of Justice found [3] was used internally by Microsoft [4] to describe its strategy for entering product categories involving widely used open standards, extending those standards with proprietary capabilities, and using the differences to strongly disadvantage ...
Examples of this strategy include using anti-spam techniques, using CAPTCHA and other human presence detection techniques, and using DOS-based defense (protection from Denial-of-service attack). This is a supporting strategy for boundary protection and information system monitoring.
This CAPTCHA (reCAPTCHA v1) of "smwm" obscures its message from computer interpretation by twisting the letters and adding a slight background color gradient.A CAPTCHA (/ ˈ k æ p. tʃ ə / KAP-chə) is a type of challenge–response test used in computing to determine whether the user is human in order to deter bot attacks and spam.
STRIDE is a model for identifying computer security threats [1] developed by Praerit Garg and Loren Kohnfelder at Microsoft. [2] It provides a mnemonic for security threats in six categories. [3] The threats are: Spoofing; Tampering; Repudiation; Information disclosure (privacy breach or data leak) Denial of service; Elevation of privilege [4]
AOL Mail uses many security measures to keep your account secure, one of which is CAPTCHA or image challenges when sending mail. These challenges exist to make it harder for hackers to access your accounts. The characters can't be read by a computer and must be entered manually, ensuring only a real person can pass the test. Why am I being ...
An attack is an instantiation of a threat scenario which is caused by a specific attacker with a specific goal in mind and a strategy for reaching that goal. The goal and strategy represent the highest semantic levels of the DML model. This is followed by the TTP (Tactics, Techniques and Procedures) which represent intermediate semantic levels.
A return-oriented programming attack is superior to the other attack types discussed, both in expressive power and in resistance to defensive measures. None of the counter-exploitation techniques mentioned above, including removing potentially dangerous functions from shared libraries altogether, are effective against a return-oriented ...
The attack exploits an implementation weakness in the authentication protocol, where password hashes remain static from session to session until the password is next changed. This technique can be performed against any server or service accepting LM or NTLM authentication, whether it runs on a machine with Windows, Unix, or any other operating ...
