In addition to physical components and performance tests, UL 2610 includes guidelines on software-based receiving equipment, remote access security, communication data integrity standards, and operational instructions for system installations.
Physical security systems for protected facilities can be intended to: [2] [3] [4] deter potential intruders (e.g. warning signs, security lighting); detect intrusions, and identify, monitor and record intruders (e.g. security alarms, access control and CCTV systems); trigger appropriate incident responses (e.g. by security guards and police);
Security Level 2 improves upon the physical security mechanisms of a Security Level 1 cryptographic module by requiring features that show evidence of tampering, including tamper-evident coatings or seals that must be broken to attain physical access to the plaintext cryptographic keys and critical security parameters (CSPs) within the module ...
The NIST Computer Security Division develops standards, metrics, tests, and validation programs, and it publishes standards and guidelines to increase secure IT planning, implementation, management, and operation. NIST is also the custodian of the U.S. Federal Information Processing Standard publications (FIPS).
FIPS PUB 31 Guidelines for Automatic Data Processing Physical Security and Risk Management 1974; FIPS PUB 46-3 Data Encryption Standard 1999; FIPS PUB 73 Guidelines for Security of Computer Applications 1980; FIPS PUB 74 Guidelines for Implementing and Using the NBS Data Encryption Standard 1981; FIPS PUB 81 DES Modes of Operation 1980
The physical security industry is known for its closed, proprietary systems; custom coding is typically required to integrate a closed system with any other system or digital tool. [13] Bunzel convened a meeting of security industry leaders to discuss creating open standards in the physical security industry.
Common physical security access control with a finger print A sailor checks an identification card (ID) before allowing a vehicle to enter a military installation.. In physical security and information security, access control (AC) is the selective restriction of access to a place or other resource, while access management describes the process.
Security controls or security measures are safeguards or countermeasures to avoid, detect, counteract, or minimize security risks to physical property, information, computer systems, or other assets. [1] In the field of information security, such controls protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of information.
