Läser en kurs, software engineering, i skolan nu och jag tycker läraren har lite konstig definition på begreppen "threat" och "attack". Såhär lyder den:

In computer security terms, explain the differences between an attack and a threat.

Threats have potential to cause loss or harm in a system. Threats can be thought of as system vulnerability that is subjected to an attack. An attack is an exploitation of a system's threats. Generally, an attack is from outside the system and is a deliberate attempt to cause some damage

Vad säger ni? Detta är inte definitionerna jag uppfattat tidigare iaf.
