2. Security Models 

  • A computer security model is a scheme for specifying and enforcing security policies. A security model may be founded upon a formal model of access rights, a model of computation, a model of distributed computing, or no particular theoretical grounding at all. 

3. Physical Security

This includes protection from fire, flood, natural disasters, burglary, theft, vandalism and terrorism.
