What are the six basic security concepts that need to be covered by security testing are?..

Answer / guest

Hai....

1.Confidentiality:

* A security measure which protects against the disclosure
of information to parties other than the intended recipient
(s).
* Often ensured by means of encoding the information using
a defined algorithm and some secret information known only
to the originator of the information and the intended
recipient(s) (a process known as cryptography) but that is
by no means the only way of ensuring confidentiality.

2.Integrity:

* A measure intended to allow the receiver to determine
that the information which it receives has not been altered
in transit or by other than the originator of the
information.
* Integrity schemes often use some of the same underlying
technologies as confidentiality schemes, but they usually
involve adding additional information to a communication to
form the basis of an algorithmic check rather than the
encoding all of the communication.

3.Authentication:

* A measure designed to establish the validity of a
transmission, message, or originator.
* Allows a receiver to have confidence that information is
receives originated from a specific known source.

4.Authorization:

* The process of determining that a requestor is allowed to
receive a service or perform an operation.
* Access control is an example of authorization.

5.Availability:

* Assuring information and communications services will be
ready for use when expected.
* Information must be kept available to authorized persons
when they need it.

6.Non-repudiation:

* A measure intended to prevent the later denial that an
action happened, or a communication that took place etc.
* In communication terms this often involves the
interchange of authentication information combined with
some form of provable time stamp.
