Quarantine processing
Quarantine processing: The isolation of potentially infected or malicious data or software from the rest of a system or network in order to prevent it from spreading or causing damage. It is used in cybersecurity to protect networks and systems from malware and other forms of cyberattack. Examples include using virtual machines or sandboxes to […]
Query-based Attacks
Query-based Attacks: A category of cyber-attacks that involve the manipulation or exploitation of query processes within databases or applications. Specific examples include SQL injection, where malicious SQL queries are inserted into user input fields to manipulate databases, and DDoS attacks, which may flood a server with excessive network protocol queries to disrupt service.
Race condition
Race condition: A situation in which multiple processes or threads are competing for the same resources, and the outcome depends on the order in which they are executed. It is a common issue in the field of computer science and can lead to unpredictable or incorrect behavior. Examples include the use of locks and semaphores […]
RAID 0 (Disk Striping)
RAID 0 (Disk Striping): A RAID (Redundant Array of Independent Disks) configuration that improves system performance by spreading data across multiple disks (striping). It offers no redundancy and does not protect against data loss; if one disk fails, all data on the array is lost. RAID 0 is best suited for situations where speed is […]
RAID 1 (Disk Mirroring)
RAID 1 (Disk Mirroring): A RAID setup that copies identical data onto two or more disks (mirroring) to ensure data redundancy. If one disk fails, the data can be retrieved from the other mirror disk, providing fault tolerance. RAID 1 is ideal for applications requiring high availability.
RAID 10 (Striping and Mirroring)
RAID 10 (Striping and Mirroring): Combines the benefits of RAID 0 and RAID 1 by striping data across mirrored pairs of disks. It requires at least four disks and offers high performance, redundancy, and faster recovery from disk failures. RAID 10 is suitable for high-load, mission-critical systems.
