Description: Exploitation prevention refers to the measures and strategies implemented to prevent attackers from exploiting vulnerabilities in computer systems. This approach is fundamental in security orchestration, automation, and response, as it aims to identify and mitigate risks before they can be exploited. Prevention techniques include applying security patches, properly configuring systems, using intrusion detection tools, and implementing robust security policies. Additionally, user education and training are key components, as many attacks rely on social engineering and manipulation of individuals. Exploitation prevention focuses not only on technology but also encompasses processes and people, creating a comprehensive approach to security. In an environment where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, exploitation prevention becomes a priority for organizations seeking to protect their sensitive assets and data.
