Access Brokers
Access brokers (also known as initial access brokers) are criminal groups who specialize in selling illegitimate access to corporate networks. These groups breach the networks and then sell the access on to ransomware and other cybercriminal groups.
Advanced Persistent Threat (APT)
Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) is a prolonged and targeted cyberattack in which an intruder, or team of intruders, gain access to a network using sophisticated hacking techniques, and remain undetected for an extended period of time.
Adversarial Machine Learning
What is Adversarial Machine Learning? Adversarial machine learning refers to a field of cybersecurity and artificial intelligence that focuses on how attackers manipulate, deceive, or exploit machine learning models in order to cause them to behave incorrectly or reveal sensitive information. These attacks target the AI system itself rather ⟶
Adware
Adware is a type of malware that displays unwanted pop up advertisements on your computer or device. Adware is commonly activated unknowingly when a user is trying to install legitimate applications that the adware is bundled with. The ads are delivered through pop-up windows or bars that appear on the program's ⟶
ADX Protect
What is ADX Protect? ADX Protect is an enterprise cybersecurity solution developed by BlackFog that focuses on preventing data exfiltration and stopping cyberattacks before sensitive information leaves an organization’s network or devices.

Agentic AI
What is Agentic AI? Agentic AI refers to artificial intelligence systems that can autonomously plan, make decisions, and take actions to achieve specific goals with limited human intervention. Unlike traditional AI tools that respond to direct prompts or perform narrowly defined tasks, agentic AI systems are designed to operate ⟶
AI Enabled Threat
What is an AI Enabled Threat? An AI enabled threat refers to a cyber threat or malicious activity in which attackers use artificial intelligence technologies such as machine learning, generative AI, or large language models (LLMs) to enhance, automate, or scale cyberattacks. These threats leverage AI to make traditional ⟶
AI Hallucination
What is an AI Hallucination? An AI hallucination occurs when a generative AI system produces information that is false, fabricated, or misleading while presenting it as if it were accurate. AI hallucinations typically occur in systems powered by large language models (LLMs), such as generative AI chatbots and AI ⟶
AI Model Inversion Attack
What is an AI Model Inversion Attack? An AI model inversion attack is a type of adversarial machine learning attack in which an attacker attempts to reconstruct or infer sensitive data used to train a machine learning model by analyzing the model’s outputs. Instead of directly breaching a database ⟶
AI Model Poisoning
What is AI Model Poisoning? AI model poisoning, also known as data poisoning, is a type of cyberattack in which malicious actors intentionally manipulate the data used to train an artificial intelligence system in order to influence or corrupt the model’s behavior. By inserting malicious, misleading, or biased data ⟶
