IoT Security The discipline of protecting connected devices, their communication, and the data they generate from compromise, addressing threat surfaces specific to IoT deployments — massive device populations, resource-constrained hardware, physical exposure,… Concept/Framework IT IT is information technology, the domain of computer systems, software, and networks used to process and exchange information. Software IT-OT Boundary The defined network and security demarcation point between an organization's information technology systems and operational technology systems, positioned according to a reference architecture such as the Purdue Model and enforced… Concept/Framework IT/OT Convergence The ongoing integration of conventional information technology systems with operational technology systems that directly control physical industrial processes, driven by remote monitoring, predictive maintenance, and IoT sensor integration, requiring deliberate… Concept/Framework Key Management Key Management is the lifecycle process for generating, distributing, storing, rotating, and revoking cryptographic keys. It protects the use of encryption and authentication systems. Operations Knowledge Management Knowledge Management is the practice of structuring and governing organizational knowledge so it can be created, maintained, discovered, and applied effectively. Concept/Framework Knowledge Retrieval Knowledge Retrieval is the process of locating relevant facts, documents, passages, or records from a knowledge source so they can be used in decision-making, assistance, or generation. Concept/Framework Large Language Model A Large Language Model is a neural network, typically based on the transformer architecture, trained on very large volumes of text data to predict and generate coherent language sequences, enabling… Concept/Framework Lateral Movement Lateral movement is the activity of traversing internal trust boundaries or connected systems to expand the operational reach of a compromised actor. Concept/Framework Least Privilege Least privilege is a security and access-control principle requiring that each subject be granted only the permissions necessary to perform its authorized functions. It applies to users, devices, services, and… Concept/Framework
