Study Notes
Physical Security
Access Control
- Definition: Restricting and monitoring who can enter a physical area or resource
- Types:
- Physical barriers (gates, fences, walls)
- Electronic access control systems (card readers, biometric scanners)
- Procedural access control (sign-in/sign-out, escorts)
- Goals:
- Prevent unauthorized access
- Control and monitor movement
- Enhance safety and security
Intrusion Detection
- Definition: Identifying and alerting on unauthorized access or attempts to breach physical security
- Types:
- Sensors (motion, door, window)
- Alarms (audible, visual, silent)
- CCTV cameras with motion detection
- Goals:
- Detect and respond to intrusions
- Deter potential intruders
- Enhance security and safety
Secure Facilities Design
- Definition: Designing and constructing physical spaces to prevent unauthorized access and protect assets
- Principles:
- Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED)
- Secure access points (entrances, exits)
- Segregation of sensitive areas
- Goals:
- Prevent unauthorized access
- Protect people, assets, and data
- Enhance safety and security
Surveillance Systems
- Definition: Monitoring and recording physical areas and activities using cameras and other technologies
- Types:
- CCTV cameras (analog, IP)
- IP cameras with analytics (motion detection, facial recognition)
- Other sensors (audio, seismic)
- Goals:
- Deter criminal activity
- Monitor and respond to incidents
- Enhance security and safety
Emergency Response Planning
- Definition: Developing and implementing procedures to respond to security incidents and emergencies
- Components:
- Risk assessment and threat analysis
- Incident response protocols
- Training and drills
- Goals:
- Respond effectively to emergencies
- Minimize damage and risk
- Enhance safety and security
Physical Security
Access Control
- Restricts and monitors who can enter a physical area or resource to prevent unauthorized access and enhance safety and security.
- Physical barriers include gates, fences, and walls.
- Electronic access control systems use card readers, biometric scanners, and other technologies.
- Procedural access control involves sign-in/sign-out processes and escorts.
Intrusion Detection
- Identifies and alerts on unauthorized access or attempts to breach physical security to detect and respond to intrusions and deter potential intruders.
- Sensors detect motion, door, and window activity.
- Alarms can be audible, visual, or silent.
- CCTV cameras are equipped with motion detection.
Secure Facilities Design
- Designs and constructs physical spaces to prevent unauthorized access and protect assets using Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles.
- Secure access points include entrances and exits.
- Sensitive areas are segregated to prevent unauthorized access.
Surveillance Systems
- Monitors and records physical areas and activities using cameras and other technologies to deter criminal activity and enhance security.
- CCTV cameras can be analog or IP.
- IP cameras with analytics can detect motion and recognize faces.
- Other sensors include audio and seismic detectors.
Emergency Response Planning
- Develops and implements procedures to respond to security incidents and emergencies to minimize damage and risk.
- Risk assessment and threat analysis identify potential vulnerabilities.
- Incident response protocols outline procedures for responding to emergencies.
- Training and drills prepare personnel for emergency response.
