Security Administration Procedures
Security administration involves the identification of a company's high-value data and the creation, documentation, and execution of policies, procedures, standards. Management techniques that include information classification and risk assessment can be utilized to identify possible attacks, classify assets, and evaluate system vulnerabilities so that appropriate measures can be implemented.

Security Architecture and Models
This concerns the concepts, structures, and guidelines followed to build, track, and secure OS platforms, hardware, networks, and application software plus the controls utilized to enforce different levels of availability, integrity, and privacy.

Access Management Solutions and Methodology
Access management systems are a set of mechanisms that operate together to build a security infrastructure to protect the high-value data of the information network.

Applications Development Security
This addresses the important security principles associated with application software development. Software development security outlines the circumstances where software is designed and developed and explains the vital role application software has in providing IT system security.

Secure Operations
This has to do with identifying the management of equipment, media, and the operators and administrators with access privileges to any of these resources. Audit and monitoring are the tools and facilities that enable the identification of security-related activity and follow-on efforts to identify the essential elements and convey the pertinent information to the appropriate individual, group, or mechanism.

Physical Security
Physical security addresses protection techniques for the entire facility, from the perimeter to the desk, including all of the information system resources.
