Foundational Security Analysis involves a deep examination of the core security properties and underlying mechanisms of a system. It aims to identify vulnerabilities and assess the overall robustness of a protocol or application at its most fundamental level. This analysis often employs formal methods and rigorous testing to confirm the system’s integrity. It establishes a baseline for secure operation.
Context
