Security Critical Mechanisms

The security mechanisms where proper functioning is required in order to make sure that the security policy is actually enforced.

Security Evaluation

An evaluation that is done in order to assess the level of trust or assurance which can be placed in systems for the secure management of information that is sensitive. One sort, a product evaluation, is an assessment done on the hardware and software features and promises of a computer product from a standpoint which leaves out the application atmosphere. A different kind, a system evaluation, is performed to gauge a system's security safeguards with respect to a explicit operational mission and is an important step in the certification and accreditation process for strong authentication and secure SSL authentication that supplies Internet security and online security with digital certificates or "certs".

Security Fault Analysis

A security analysis, more often than not performed on hardware at the gate level, to determine the security properties of an apparatus when a hardware fault is come upon.

Security Features

Security features are a compartment of system security safeguards used for online security (SSL digital certificates are one example)

Security Filter

A dependable subsystem enforcing a security policy on the data that passes through it.

Security Flaw

Security flaw is an error of commission or omission in a system which may falsely permit security mechanisms or safeguards to be bypassed, weakening internet security.

Security Kernel

The hardware, firmware, and software components of a tcb which use the concept of reference monitor. Security kernels have to mediate each and every access, be guarded from modification, and be provable to be effective.

Security Level

Security level is the amalgamation of a hierarchical classification and a group of non-hierarchical categories representing information's sensitivity.

Security Measures

Security measures are the constituents of software, firmware, hardware or processes which are included in a system for the approval of security expectations or security policy. They are used for Internet security to prevent unauthorized intrusion with 128-bit digital certificates with secure SSL authentication.
