The terms so far we’ve found to define

While I’ve worked on Email Host Security the site where I hope people can learn, I’ve found some terms (whether defined by Wikipedia or other sources) that may be of interest.

In this blog post, I want to share the terms, and if applicable, where they were gotten from.

If you feel that I’m missing a term, I want to hear from folks. Without your help, we can’t know what’s missing on our own.

Here’s the list taken directly from EMHS’s resources page. Note: if there is nothing after the entry, we got the term defined by Wikipedia.

• malware
• Phishing
• Voice Phishing
• DomainKeys Identified Mail
• DMARC
• Sender Policy Framework (SPF)
• Email spoofing
• Business Email Compromise (BEC) (Trend Micro Glossary)
• Typosquatting
• Voice over IP
• IP address
• Knowledge-based authentication
• glossary of terms in the industry from Knowb4 Knowb4 (Know before)
• Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
• Common Vulnerability Scoring System
• National Cyber Security Awareness Month
• doxing or doxxing
• STIR/SHAKEN protocol for caller ID

I want to make sure we cover as many as we can because they come up as part of our landscape we live in today. One of the resources is to Know Before, a company that does teaching.

I’ll be posting the companies and services later on to see if we’re missing any company or service that you feel should be there later.

For now, peruse this list, and send me an email at tech at menvi.org and let me know what’s missing.

Thanks for helping us stay as secure as possible!
