CAPEC

CAPEC, which stands for Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification, is a comprehensive database that catalogs different ways cyber attackers try to compromise systems. It describes common methods and strategies attackers use, helping security professionals understand potential threats. By analyzing attack patterns, organizations can better identify vulnerabilities and develop strategies to defend against specific types of cyberattacks. Think of CAPEC as a detailed catalog of hacker techniques, enabling defenders to anticipate and counter threats more effectively and proactively improve cybersecurity measures.
