Target Name
Term · Cybersecurity · MLC-T-CYB-004252
A single WFN that is the target of a matching process. A matching engine compares a source WFN to a target WFN to determine whether or not there is a source-to-target match. In CPE 2.2 terms a target name is a single item in the list of known values (each N of K) and is equivalent to the N value in the CPE 2.2 Matching algorithm.
