What is vulnerability?



What is vulnerability?..

Answer / pa

In computer security, the word vulnerability refers to a
weakness in a system allowing an attacker to violate the
confidentiality, integrity, availability [i.e (C.I.A)
NSTISSC's triangle], access control, consistency or audit
mechanisms of the system or the data and applications it
hosts. Vulnerabilities may result from bugs or design flaws
in the system. A vulnerability can exist either only in
theory, or could have a known exploit. Vulnerabilities are
of significant interest when the program containing the
vulnerability operates with special privileges, performs
authentication or provides easy access to user data or
facilities (such as a network server or RDBMS).

When I start recording any web application (either Mozilla or IE) QTP recognizes window instead of browser and also it does not show all the hierarchy tree of that particular web page. 1. Window("Mozilla Firefox").Check CheckPoint("Mozilla Firefox") 2. As everybody knows it should be browser("Mozilla Firefox").Check CheckPoint("Mozilla Firefox") I am using the windows vista, do you think it may be a problem of my settings in QTP or problem of my installation. Your kind responses will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Satya
