Attack surface information


The attack surface of a software environment is the sum of the different points (for "attack vectors") where an unauthorized user (the "attacker") can try to enter data to, extract data, control a device or critical software in an environment.[1][2] Keeping the attack surface as small as possible is a basic security measure.[3]
