Resource Hijacking
Attack (MITRE ATT&CK T1496) in which an adversary uses a compromised system's compute, bandwidth, or services for their own tasks — from cryptojacking to LLMjacking.
Learn more >
Reflection Attack
A network attack in which requests carrying the victim's spoofed IP are sent to reflector servers so their replies flood the target — the basis of DRDoS attacks.
Learn more >
Rate Limiting
Mechanism that caps how many requests a single client may send within a time window; once exceeded, requests are rejected (HTTP 429) or delayed, protecting availability and curbing abuse.
Learn more >
QUIC
A UDP-based transport protocol with built-in TLS 1.3 encryption. It sets up the connection and encryption in one step, carries many streams at once, and survives network changes; the basis of HTTP/3.

Insider Threat
A risk posed by employees, contractors, or partners who misuse or accidentally expose access to data or systems. It helps identify internal sources of security breaches and loss.
Learn more >
Internet Peering
A direct network interconnection between ISPs, enabling mutual traffic exchange, enhancing efficiency, and reducing costs.

Intrusion Detecting System
A security solution that monitors network traffic for signs of suspicious activity, cyberattacks, or policy violations.
Learn more >
Inventory
An up-to-date, central record of all IT assets (hardware, software, services, accounts) with their descriptions — the basis for managing risk, vulnerabilities, and the attack surface.
Learn more >
IoA (Indicator of Attack)
An indicator of attack is a sign of suspicious activity that may show an attack is in progress or about to happen. It helps security teams detect and stop threats early.
Learn more >
IoC (Indicator of Compromise)
An indicator of compromise is a digital artifact or behavior that may signal a security breach. It helps security teams detect, investigate, and respond to threats quickly.
Learn more >
IPFIX
A standardized method for exporting network flow data, enabling detailed analysis of traffic patterns.
Learn more >
IPS (Intrusion Prevention System)
An intrusion prevention system monitors network traffic for suspicious activity and blocks detected attacks automatically. It helps protect systems and data from unauthorized access and other threats.
