Information Security

1. Security is concerned with issues of testing your software and hardware, and with presenting user mistakes.

2. More sophisticated security methods include limiting data access by requiring the user to have an encoded card or to supply an identification number or password.

3. Network security reduces the risk of connecting to a network.

6. Preventing your system from becoming a tool of evil is an important reason for protecting it.

7. The benefit of connecting individual work-stations and small servers to the Internet generally overweighs the chance of having service interrupted for the individuals and small groups served by these systems.

8. Security planning (accessing the threat, assigning security responsibilities, and writinga security policy) is the basic building block of network security.

9. Subnets are a possible tool for distributing network control.

15. By connecting to the numeric IP address, rather than the domain name, spyware may bypass this sort of protection.

16. The first step to removing the virus (spyware) is to put your computer on "lockdown."

17. By breakingthe system up into smaller components, the complexity of individual components is reduced, opening up the possibility of using techniques such as automated theorem proving to prove the correctness of crucial software subsystems.

18. Capabilities achieve their objective of improving system security by being used in place of forgeable references.

19. Giving out confidential information over the telephone is a breach of confidentiality if the caller is not authorized to have the information.

20. Ensuring confidentiality of your data means to effectively protect sensitive and private information of any kind, stored on and transmitted over systems that are connected to the Internet, from being accessed by any external party.

21. Assuring availability on your network means to protect your communicational form of a guaranteed minimum bandwidth and impenetrable functionality of processes which use remote data transmission.

22. If you rely on security levels, it is mandatory to prevent your system from loading the operating system after being rebooted without user interaction at the console.

23. Establishingsecurity at system kernel level means to achieve optimal control, stability, and predictability of low level system events.

24. One of the big security weaknesses of systems exposed to the Internet are remote vulnerabilities of network demons which can be exploited without even having finished the authentication stage of a service.

25. In some cases, the risk can be transferred to another business by buying insurance or out-sourcing to another business.

33. However, the study was criticized by both mainstream environmental economists - for being inconsistent with assumptions of monetary valuation - and ecological economists - for being inconsistent with an ecological economics focus on biological and physical indicators.

34. By putting more money into circulation, the central bank can stimulate demand. By taking money out of circulation, the central bank can reduce demand.
