Security Management Procedures
Security administration involves the identification of an organization's most important information and the development, documentation, and carrying out of policies, procedures, standards. Administration tools that include information classification and risk assessment can be utilized to determine possible threats, classify assets, and rate security weaknesses so that appropriate controls can be implemented.

Security Infrastructure and Paradigms
This involves the concepts, structures, and guidelines used to build, monitor, and protect operating systems, equipment, infrastructure, and application software as well as the tools used to police various levels of robustness, integrity, and confidentiality.

Access Control Systems and Methodology
Access management systems are a set of mechanisms that operate in unison to create a security architecture to guard the assets of the IT system.

Software Development Security
This covers the key security principles that apply to application software development. Application software development security outlines the circumstances where programs are designed and produced and explains the critical part software has in providing information network security.

Secure Operations

Audit and tracking are the tools and facilities that permit the awareness of security-related events and subsequent actions to identify the essential factors and report the associated data to the appropriate individual, team, or process.

Physical Security
Physical security addresses security mechanisms for the whole facility, from the perimeter to the inside office space, including all of the information network assets.

Data Encryption
Cryptography covers the concepts, techniques, and methods of disguising data to ensure its integrity, confidentiality, and legitimacy.
