Used in Security and Intrusion Detection. In April of 1998, the NSA completed a
glossary of terms used in computer security and intrusion detection. The work,

NSA Information Systems Security Organization, was comprehensive,
accurate and useful. Because of the value of a comprehensive glossary, the SANS
Institute is undertaking a community-wide program to expand and update the
glossary on a continuing basis.
