Security is a fundamental aspect of any system, be it a software application, a network, or an entire organization. Here are some basic security principles to consider:
- Authentication: Ensures that users are who they claim to be.
- Authorization: Determines what actions authenticated users can perform.
- Encryption: Protects data from unauthorized access during transmission and storage.
- Auditing: Monitors and records activities within the system for security analysis.
Best Practices
