Data security in the computer communication environment

Abstract: Data security is the protection of data against unauthorized disclosure, modification, restriction, or destruction. Recognition1 that data in a computer system must be protected was a development brought on by three factors which caused a significant increase in the vulnerability of computer systems.

Toward Data Security Engineering

Abstract: : Data security engineering is a methodology for designing and implementing cost-effective data protection mechanisms for specified databank systems. Included will be models of protective mechanisms, derivation of measurements of effectiveness, setting up and evaluating cost-effectiveness formulae, developing a calculus for handling complex structures of protective mechanisms, and deriving guidelines for implementation. Such a methodology does not yet exist, but is being developed by the author and others. The paper discusses the general requirements and specific features of data security engineering. (Author)
