Threat P.E.PaD-DS.9

URI: P.E.PaD-DS.9

Package: DataLifecycle

< prev | next >

Description: Process Process cannot amend volatile data Data: since Datais not stored on any host, it is not possible for Process to amend or update Data. For that to happen, Process would need to get a current value and then change it. This only makes sense if Data is persistent. If the relationship of Process to Data is correct, then there is a missing host 'stores' data relationship. If Data really is volatile, change the relationship of Process to Data to specify whether Process creates or uses Data (but not both).

Threat Type: Primary Threat

Matching Pattern:

MP-PaD-DS

Finds a process that alters (read and write) output data where there is not yet a DataCopy relating to the data.
