negative security model

The negative security model is an approach to cybersecurity that focuses on blocking known threats and harmful activities, rather than explicitly allowing everything else. Think of it like a security system that automatically prevents access to websites or files identified as dangerous, while permitting all others by default. This method minimizes the risk of unauthorized or malicious actions by actively intercepting threats based on a predefined list of risks. It’s efficient for protecting systems against known issues but may require regular updates to keep up with new threats.
