- www.nap.edu
- Computer Science and Telecommunications Board (CSTB).
- 5 Criteria to Evaluate Computer and Network Security.
- Characterizing a computer system as being secure presupposes some criteria, explicit or implicit, against which the system in question is measured or evaluated. Documents such as the National Computer Security Center's (NCSC's) Trusted Computer System Evaluation Criteria (TCSEC, or Orange Book; U. ... DOD, 1985d) and its Trusted Network Interpretation (TNI, or Red Book; U. ... DOD, 1987), and the harmonized Information Technology Security Evaluation Criteria (ITSEC; Federal Republic of Germany, 1990) of France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom provide standards against which computer and network systems can be evaluated with respect to security characteristics. As described below in "Comparing National Criteria Sets," these documents embody different approaches to security evaluation, and the differences are a result of other, perhaps less obvious purposes that security evaluation criteria can serve.
- While building on experience gained in the use of Orange Book criteria, the analysis contributes to the arguments for a new construct, Generally Accepted System Security Principles, or GSSP. ...
- CRITERIA TO EVALUATE COMPUTER AND NETWORK SECUM~ 125 SECURITY EVALUATION CRITERIA IN GENERAL At a minimum, security evaluation criteria provide a standard lan- guage for expressing security characteristics and establish an objective basis for evaluating a product relative to these characteristics. Thus one can critique such criteria based on how well security characteristics can be expressed and evaluated relative to the criteria. Security evaluation criteria also serve as frameworks for users (purchasers) and for ven- dors. Users employ criteria in the selection and acquisition of computer and network products, for example, by relying on independent evaluations to validate vendor claims for security and by using ratings as a basis for concisely expressing computer and network security requirements. ... Thus it is also possible to critique security evaluation criteria based on their utility to users and vendors in support of these goals. These goals of security evaluation criteria are not thoroughly complementary. ... A separate issue with regard to evaluating system security is how applicable criteria of the sort noted above are to complete systems, as opposed to individual computer or network products. This question is addressed below in "System Certification vs. ... " Before discussing in more detail the goals for product criteria, it is useful to examine the nature of the security characteristics addressed in evaluation criteria. Security Characteristics Most evaluation criteria reflect two potentially independent aspects of security: functionality and assurance. Security functionality refers to the facilities by which security services are provided to users.

- Effective Security Incorporates Business Objectives.
- Planning for Security Breaches.
- According to Information Week's Global Security Survey (Information Week, "It's Time to Clamp Down," July 10, 2000), security breaches, virus-attack cleanups and other sources of downtime caused $1. ... Yet, the same survey reports only 38 percent of businesses believe their security policies are "very well aligned with their business goals. " That leaves nearly two-thirds of businesses at risk for major security breaches.
- Many organizations implement security solutions but fail to re-evaluate them, leaving their most valuable information and assets vulnerable. The result is unsurprising: the 2000 Computer Security Institute/FBI Computer Crime and Security Survey reported that 90 percent of its respondents suffered security breaches in the previous year. In the face of such statistics, IT managers and other business executives should evaluate and grade their current security policies on a regular basis.
- Effective Security Incorporates Business Objectives.
- An effective security system occurs when management understands its priorities and continues to evaluate its security to meet business interests. A business must protect its network from security breaches, yet remain open enough to conduct core business functions effectively. If a security system protects itself from all virus attacks and hackers, but cuts off the ability to serve customers or to pursue e-commerce, it hurts the bottom line. Network security should always be directed toward what benefits business goals the most.
- Network security professionals should have a clear security plan, including policies and processes, which evaluate the entire network, including assets and vulnerabilities. The plan should be reconsidered as the network and business changes -- whether to take advantage of e-or m-commerce (e-commerce using mobile, handheld computers) or simply to enhance the use of the network for sales, service and marketing. IT managers, along with key executives from core business areas, are the best people to evaluate the quality of the security plan and processes. They can best determine what the network's most valuable assets are in light of business objectives. At regular intervals, they are also the best people to re-evaluate and grade security policies and performance. A comprehensive, on-going security plan includes the following phases: .

Most aspects of security, including network security and the creation of a security policy, are quite complex; however, gaining a basic understanding of the principles and tools involved is a straightforward exercise.
- While this overview will give you a basic understanding of the need for a site security policy, and factors to consider in creating a security policy, it will not tell you what your security policy should be. The reason for this is simple - security is very subjective. ... No single site security policy is best for any two business.

Systems analysts may plan and develop new computer systems or devise ways to apply existing systems’ resources to additional operations. They may design new systems, including both hardware and software, or add a new software application to harness more of the computer’s power. ...
- Defining the goals of the system and dividing the solutions into individual steps and separate procedures, systems analysts use techniques such as structured analysis, data modeling, information engineering, mathematical model building, sampling, and cost accounting to plan the system. They specify the inputs to be accessed by the system, design the processing steps, and format the output to meet users’ needs. ...
- When a system is accepted, systems analysts determine what computer hardware and software will be needed to set the system up. They coordinate tests and observe the initial use of the system to ensure that it performs as planned. They prepare specifications, flow charts, and process diagrams for computer programmers to follow; then, they work with programmers to “debug,” or eliminate, errors from the system. ...
