A branching model exposes each possible step for malicious activity, allowing security teams to pinpoint entry points and plan defenses. An inventory approach focuses on asset tracking, which does not produce a step-by-step outline of how an attacker could traverse a network. Logging provides useful data but does not create a branching representation of each possible path. Frequent scans identify known vulnerabilities but do not detail ways potential attackers progress through multiple attack stages.
