positive security model

The positive security model is a security approach that explicitly defines and permits only the specific actions, websites, or data that are authorized. It works by creating a whitelist of trusted entities, allowing access solely to those approved resources. Any attempt to access or execute anything not on the list is blocked. This method enhances security by reducing the chance of accidental or malicious access to harmful content, ensuring users can only interact with known, safe components. Essentially, it’s about proactively allowing what is safe rather than trying to block everything that might be dangerous.
