Security

IT Security is a field of computer science concerned with the control of risks related to computer use. The means traditionally taken to realize this objective is to attempt to create a secure computing platform, designed so that agents (users or programs) can only perform actions that have been allowed. This involves specifying and implementing a security policy. The actions in question can be reduced to operations of access, modification and deletion.

By : CA Published Date: Oct 28, 2008
Much application security is linked to the concept of the user sign-on: often comprised of a user name and password. This basic form of limiting access to a computer system dates to the early days of computing. As technology has progressed, there has been development in using the basic sign-on, as well as more complex sign-on procedures, to further stratify user access within a given system. More complex security measures around user identification have also evolved, including logging of certain user activities and the creation of user classes to which a set of access privileges can be assigned.
