Vulnerability Discovery

Vulnerability discovery is a research area and methodological approach focused on systematically identifying security weaknesses (vulnerabilities) within software, hardware, networks, or complex systems. This process employs various analytical and testing techniques to uncover potential flaws that could be exploited, thereby informing defensive measures and enhancing system security.
