The six concepts that need to be covered by security are: confidentiality, integrity, authentication, authorization, availability, and non-repudiation. 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, 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. 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 encoding all of the communication. Authentication: A measure designed to establish the validity of a transmission, message, or originator. It allows a receiver to have confidence that the information it receives originated from a specific known source. Authorization: The process of determining that a requester is allowed to receive a service or perform an operation. 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. Non-repudiation: A measure intended to prevent the later denial that an action happened, or a communication took place, etc. In communication terms, this often involves the interchange of authentication information combined with some form of provable time stamp.
