Computer security is very essential to proyect against the threats caused to computing system which happen because of it's vulnerability. Threat to computing security takes place by a person, event or circumstance may be intentionally for sake of finance or unintentionally by deleting some of the important data. A threat agent depends on method, opportunity and motivation. Method is a knowledge to attack , oppurtinity to access the necessary information and motive behind the aatack. In olden days
information of the organization. Database Security Database security is to prevent unauthorized users to access the company's database.

There are four domains of vulnerabilities that may cause information/data security breaches. Information Security Governance, People, Processes and Technology are it. Hacking, stealing and copying information are the examples of breaches that takes place at times. According to the information security governance, success is often less, due to inability to value the the organisation 's information and data. This creates the discussion on the needs for security and the resources to be assigned to this

Abstract - The main objective of Steganography is to communicate securely in such a way that the true message is not visible to the observer. Depending on the type of the cover object there are many suitable steganographic techniques which are followed in order to obtain security. The seganographic techniques can be classified as audio, video, text, image and network steganography. In this paper we have analyzed various data hiding techniques in encrypted images. Keywords: steganography, data hiding
Database Security: Database security is a critical Domain of Computer and Information Security that deals with protection of an individual database or group of database from illegal access, injections or possible destruction. Data can be a customer's information, intellectual property, financial asset or any number of other records that can be maintained and managed on a system. Without Database security people are at risk of identity fraud, theft, destruction of property and much worse. The global
Online security breaching is criminal activity that can happen from any part of the world through the hacking of any infrastructure. Most breaches are done through the falsifying and personal information or even a breach of security stemming from lack of security. Now that more and more crime is happening over the internet there many different aspects to security as a whole.

The Health and Human Services (HHS) settled a case with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Tennessee (BCBST) for $1.5 million for violating the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and security rules. There are security issues with BCBST in regard to confidentiality, integrity, availability, and privacy. There are also security requirement by HIPAA which could have prevent the security issue if it has been enforced. There are correction actions taken by BCBST which were efficient and
1. The most common types of system access controls Access control determines allowed activities of legitimate users, mediating every attempt by a user to access a resource in the system and prevent unauthorized users to access the system. It requires unique user identification, emergency access procedure, automatic log-off, and encryption and decryption of data. Some common types of access control include: User-based, Role-based and Context-based access control with the strongest security on Context-based
In its current innovative state, DBR has several areas of risk and concern. First and foremost is the propensity for intellectual property loss with focus on both internal and external factors. The human factor serves as the primary threat in these situations, and internally the company faces leaks, extortion, bribery, blackmail, and conspiracy among other types of attacks. DBR also needs to comprehend the external human factor, hacktivists, social engineers, competitors, and others who have a vested

Include a discussion of the principles of authentication such as passwords, multifactor authentication, biometrics, and single-sign-on. Authentication credentials are vital to the security of information within
Security Proposal Dustin Riedemann Kaplan University IT286: Introduction to Network Security Prof: Denver Lee Martin September 30, 2013 I. Authentication Authentication – the use of a system to allow user’s access to a computer or network based on three factors: something you know, something you have and something you are. Purpose: Authentication is the process of determining whether someone or something is, in fact, who or what it is declared to be. This will allow you to only allow
One accountability regarding information security is confidentiality. Confidentiality is a requirement whose purpose is to keep sensitive information from being disclosed to unauthorized recipients. It is roughly equivalent to privacy. Measures undertaken to ensure confidentiality are designed to prevent sensitive information from reaching the wrong people, while making sure that the right people can in fact get it. Access must be restricted to those authorized to view the data in question. It is
Case 5 Security controls are technical or administrative safeguards or counter measures to avoid, counteract or minimize loss or unavailability due to threats acting on their matching vulnerability, i.e., security risk. Controls are referenced all the time in security, but they are rarely defined. The purpose of this section is to define technical, administrative/personnel, preventative, detective, and corrective compensating controls, as well as general controls. Basically they are categorized in
Illegal access and modification of data will be discussed in this research paper. David Noel Cecil gained illegal access into Platform Networks, an internet service provider and stole the username and password of Platform Networks managing director. In a period of ten days, David Noel Cecil got into the company’s system multiple occasions which summed up to forty-eight times (CDPP, 2011).
