I think you mean a magic bullet instead of a smoking gun :)
- bArray 1y agoI meant "smoking gun" from a cyber security perspective, i.e. the conclusion or the final part of the investigation. "magic bullet" would also work here too though.
- MaKey 1y agoEvidence, particularly of a crime, that is difficult or impossible to dispute. [1] Even with your explanation I don't think it fits here. [1] https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/smoking_gun https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/smoking_gun
- nmstoker 1y agoYou seem to have inferred the wrong meaning of "smoking gun" and that's why your usage above doesn't make sense. There's no valid reason cyber security people would take a well known idiom and repurpose it as you imply, and a quick Google suggests they haven't done this.
