Log Compression
Storing a log file in a way that reduces the amount of storage space needed for the file without altering the meaning of its contents.See ...
Log Conversion
Parsing a log in one format and storing its entries in a second format.See NIST SP 800-92 for more information.
Least Privilege
The principle that a security architecture should be designed so that each entity is granted the minimum system resources and authorizations that the entity needs ...
Life Cycle
Evolution of a system, product, service, project, or other human-made entity from conception through retirement. See the following for more information: NIST SP 800-161 under Life cycle ISO/IEC 15288.NISTIR ...
Likelihood
A weighted factor based on a subjective analysis of the probability that a given threat is capable of exploiting a given vulnerability.See NIST SP 800-161 under Likelihood ...
Likelihood of Occurrence
A weighted factor based on a subjective analysis of the probability that a given threat is capable of exploiting a given vulnerability or a set ...
Limited User Account
A user account with limited privileges on a computer. See NIST SP 800-69 for more information.
Local Area Network (LAN)
A group of computers and other devices dispersed over a relatively limited area and connected by a communications link that enables any device to interact ...
Log Analysis
Studying log entries to identify events of interest or suppress log entries for insignificant events. See NIST SP 800-92 for detailed information.
Log Clearing
Removing all entries from a log that precede a certain date and time. See NIST SP 800-92 for detailed information.
Log Management
The process for generating, transmitting, storing, analyzing, and disposing of log data.See NIST SP 800-92 for detailed information.
