detects

Security testing can detect alternate-channel race conditions before deployment.

mitigates

Network segmentation and hardening reduce the exposure of alternate channels to unauthorized actors.

mitigates

Segregating networks limits the reach of alternate communication paths to unintended parties.

prevents

Secure development practices can identify and eliminate race conditions involving alternate channels.

prevents

Application security requirements can specify thread-safety and locking rules, but do not prescribe implementation details.

prevents

Secure architecture principles reduce the likelihood of exposing alternate channels to unintended actors.
