    Study Notes

    Security Principles

    • Confidentiality: Protecting sensitive information from unauthorized access. Ensuring only authorized individuals can view data.
    • Integrity: Maintaining the accuracy and completeness of data. Ensuring data hasn't been tampered with.
    • Availability: Guaranteeing authorized users have access to resources when needed. Protecting against denial-of-service attacks.
    • Non-repudiation: Verifying that an action took place and that the party responsible cannot deny it. Digital signatures and audit logs are necessary.
    • Authentication: Verifying the identity of a user or system. Passwords, multi-factor authentication (MFA) are crucial.
    • Authorization: Granting or denying access to specific resources based on an identity's permissions. Fine-grained control over what users can do.
    • Accountability: Holding users and systems responsible for their actions. Detailed logs of system activity are key for this aspect.

    Risk Assessment

    • Identifying threats, vulnerabilities, and potential impacts. Analyzing potential incidents to minimize harm.
    • Categorizing risks based on likelihood and impact. Prioritizing those with the highest potential harm.
    • Developing mitigation strategies and controls. Creating plans to address identified threats and vulnerabilities.
    • Performing regular risk assessments to adapt to changing environments. Updating the assessment as security threats and landscapes evolve.
    • Implementing controls to reduce risks. Technical and administrative controls to reduce the chance of successful attacks.

    Compliance and Governance

    • Adhering to industry regulations, standards, and policies. Meeting regulatory mandates like HIPAA or PCI DSS.
    • Implementing and managing policies related to data security. Establishing consistent protocols for handling sensitive information.
    • Maintaining records and documentation. Detailed logs, audit trails and security documentation are critical.
    • Establishing governance structures, roles, and responsibilities. Designating individuals to manage security aspects.
    • Ensuring compliance through ongoing monitoring and auditing. Checking implemented controls and maintaining accountability.

    Identity Management

    • Securing user accounts and credentials. Storing passwords securely and utilizing strong authentication mechanisms.
    • Identifying and authenticating users. Managing user access privileges and security roles.
    • Managing user lifecycle events. Creating, modifying, and deleting user accounts based on their needs.
    • Enforcing strong password policies. Creating and implementing policies to enforce strong password practices.
    • Establishing robust access controls. Ensuring appropriate users have access to critical systems.

    Incident Response

    • Developing and testing incident response plans. Pre-determined steps to mitigate and handle disruptions.
    • Identifying, analyzing, and containing incidents. Recognizing and isolating disruptions to limit further damage.
    • Responding to incidents effectively and efficiently. Executing the established plan to remediate the situation.
    • Recovering from incidents and learning from experiences. Post-incident review and improvement for future events.
    • Communicating effectively during an incident. Keeping stakeholders updated throughout the process.
