    • Achieving absolute security is impossible; continuous improvement and adapting to emerging threats are crucial.
    • Confidentiality, integrity, and availability are core security goals. Customer data protection, data accuracy, and 24/7 service access are prioritized.
    • Defence-in-depth is employed with multiple security layers (firewalls, intrusion detection systems, access controls).
    • Employee education and training are vital to reduce human error in security practices.
    • Computer security needs both functional and assurance requirements, ensuring practicality and effectiveness.
    • Security through obscurity is ineffective; SecureBank relies on established standards & practices. Transparent security measures build trust.

    • Preventative (firewalls, encryption), detective (intrusion detection), and responsive (incident response) controls are integrated.
    • Security complexity is minimized. Overly complex security mechanisms introduce vulnerabilities.
    • Misleading tactics are avoided; SecureBank uses factual and transparent communication to build trust.
    • Comprehensive security involves people (employees), processes, and technology.
    • Responsible vulnerability disclosure is encouraged through cooperation with security researchers. This allows for quick identification and resolution of weaknesses.
