The security I use a database management program such as PHPMyAdmin (with the WEE extension), select the field you need to encrypt by its name from a menu, select the public key and press the encrypt button, the protected information is ready to be stored in the database.

1.Authentication: It has to do with the process of identifying one’s self into the application. For a user to be authenticated into the SAP system he needs to have a valid user I.D. and a password.

C. Permissions and Rights (What they can do. . Which operations they can perform on a system.)

Access control refers to the mechanisms that identify who can and cannot access a network, resource, application, specific action.

As it applies to an IT environment, a vulnerability assessment is used to identify existing vulnerabilities giving the environment owner an awareness of what needs to be fixed (Who needs a Vulnerability Assessment, 2017). The assessment needs to be viewed for what it is, a onetime occurrence that in no way highlights all vulnerabilities. Multiple assessments of vulnerability must be conducted over time to ensure that as many possible avenues of weakness are explored, identified, and marked for improvement. As new systems are added, programs changed, or other changes to the system are made vulnerabilities might be created.

The compared authoring tools supports different browsers such as Internet Explorer, Chrome, FireFox 4.0 for Windows, and Google Chrome or Apple Safari for Mac, and all users with different network connections can use all their services. Moreover they all support different operation systems; for example, both Lectora and Easygenerator support Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7; Lectora support Microsoft Windows 8 as a plus. Captivate is certified for Microsoft Windows 7, 8 and 8.1., and Mac OS too. They are all compatible with mobiles and smartphones or in other words “mobile friendly”.

3.p16 The purpose of access control is to regulate interactions between a subject and an object, such as data, a network or device

2.1Common Control IdentificationDescribe common security controls in place in the organization. Are the controls included in the security plan?

Formal user access control procedures must be documented, implemented and kept up to date for each application and information system to ensure authorised user access and to prevent unauthorised access. They must cover all stages of the lifecycle of user access, from the initial registration of new users to the final de-registration of users who no longer require access. These must be agreed by IDI. User access rights must be reviewed at regular intervals to ensure that the appropriate rights are still allocated. System administration accounts must only be provided to users that are required to perform system administration tasks.

type of access control by which the operating system constrains the ability of a subject or initiator to access or generally perform some sort of operation on an object or target. In practice, a subject is usually a process or thread; objects are constructs such as files, directories, TCP/UDP ports, shared memory segments, IO devices etc. Subjects and objects each have a set of security attributes. Whenever a subject attempts to access an object, an authorization rule enforced by the operating system kernel examines these security attributes and decides whether the access can take place. Any operation by any subject on any object will be tested against the set of

Mandatory access control is a single user, normally the network admin, who is given access to the users’ rights and privileges. They control access policies and are also in control of choosing which objects and what systems each individual user has access to and what they do not have access to. The access is made in the form of different levels. Each system and all folders containing information are put into a specific classification. The user will be in a certain classification that will only allow them to access data

Application of context to scan results – to determine which infrastructure vulnerabilities should be targeted first and most aggressively.

As the use of computers, databases, and technology in general, security has grown to be a powerful tool that has to be used. The threat of outside sources intruding and exploiting crucial information is a threat that is present on a daily basis. As a part of creating and implementing a security policy, a user must consider access control. Access Control is a security tool that is used to control who can use or gain access to the protected technology. Access control security includes two levels; logical and physical. Though database intrusions can happen at any moment, access control provides another security barrier that is needed.
