Attack Leaves

An attack leaf is a leaf of an attack tree. Attack leaves represent the elementary actions that need to be taken in an attack path.

The attacks are broken down until the actions are elementary, when we stop, we have a leaf. Each leaf is rated with an attack potential tuple. An attack potential tuple rates the effort required to carry out an attack in the categories called attack capabilities i.e., time, expertise, knowledge, opportunity, and equipment).

The attack potential of each attack leaf is rated according to the tooltips available in the CycurRISK. You must provide a reason for the rating.
