Exploitation techniques are the specific methods used to leverage a security vulnerability to compromise a system, including approaches like return-oriented programming, heap spraying, SQL injection, or privilege escalation chains. Penetration testers and security researchers study and apply these techniques to assess system defenses, while defenders study them to build mitigations and detection rules.
