Intro

Case study is a new section to study specific cases.
Think of them like extended notes.
In the world of cybersecurity, there are two important concepts: 1) attack vector, 2) attack path. We are only going to lightly cover this topic now.

• An attack vector is a step an attack can take to advance a bit further.
• An attack path is a list of attack vectors that chains up to a successful exploit. In penetration testing, it’s important to learn about the attack vectors and master them so that in a real practice, you can quickly realise what vectors are involved and how to utilise them to form an attack path.

I hope at least one case study will be useful for you.
