Law and Regulatory Consideration in Information Security
Previous
Next
As you learned in this module, there are many laws and regulations that security professionals must consider, depending on their organization or industry, location, and what kind of information they are being entrusted with. Throughout your career as an IT professional, you may find yourself working in multiple industries. If you work in different industries, you need to have a general understanding of numerous laws and regulations to determine what is applicable.
For your initial post, introduce yourself to your peers and instructor. What personal or professional experiences have you encountered that are related to the topics of this course? If you have not encountered these topics before, what are you most looking forward to covering in this course? This discussion provides you and your peers with an opportunity to get to know one another and to build a strong support system throughout this course.
Next, select one of the four laws provided below:
· Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX)
· General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
· Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA)
· Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
Lastly, answer the following questions through the lens of an IT professional:
· Which industry does your selected law apply to? If it applies to several, name a few.
· What is the most important element of the law to consider? Why?
· Do you think you will encounter your selected law in your career as an IT professional?
Answer the following:
· Suggest one or two additional elements to consider for their selected laws.
· Do you agree with their perspective? Why or why not?
· Provide an additional industry for consideration, if applicable.
· If you selected the same law, how did your responses differ?

Today, many of us work with computers,
play on computers at home, go to school
online, buy goods from merchants on the
internet, take our laptops to the coffee shop to
read emails, use our smartphones to check our bank
balances, and track our exercise with sensors on our
wrists. In other words, computers are ubiquitous.
Although technology allows us to access a host of information with
only a click of the mouse, it also poses major security risks. If the informa-
tion on the systems used by our employers or our banks becomes exposed
to an attacker, the consequences could be dire indeed. We could suddenly
find the contents of our bank account transferred to a bank in another
country in the middle of the night. Our employer could lose millions
of dollars, face legal prosecution, and suffer damage to its reputation
because of a system configuration issue that allowed an attacker to gain

access to a database containing personally identifiable information (PII)
or proprietary information. Such issues appear in the news media with
disturbing regularity.
Thirty years ago, such breaches were nearly nonexistent, largely because
the technology was at a relatively low level and few people were using it.
Although technology changes at an increasingly rapid rate, much of the
theory about keeping ourselves secure lags behind. If you can gain a good
understanding of the basics of information security, you’re on a strong foot-
ing to cope with changes as they come.
In this chapter, I’ll cover some of the basic concepts of information secu-
rity, including security models, attacks, threats, vulnerabilities, and risks. I’ll
also delve into some slightly more complex concepts when discussing risk
management, incident response, and defense in depth.
Defining Information Security
Generally speaking, security means protecting your assets, whether from
attackers invading your networks, natural disasters, vandalism, loss, or mis-
use. Ultimately, you’ll attempt to secure yourself against the most likely forms
of attack, to the best extent you reasonably can, given your environment.
You may have a broad range of potential assets you want to secure. These
could include physical items with inherent value, such as gold, or those that
have value to your business, such as computing hardware. You may also have
valuables of a more ethereal nature, such as software, source code, or data.
In today’s computing environment, you’re likely to find that your logical
assets (assets that exist as data or intellectual property) are at least as valu-
able as your physical assets (those that are tangible objects or materials), if
not more valuable. That’s where information security comes in.
Information security is defined as “protecting information and information
systems from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification,
or destruction,” according to US law.1 In other words, you want to protect
your data and systems from those who seek to misuse them, intentionally or
unintentionally, or those who should not have access to them at all.
When Are You Secure?
Eugene Spafford once said, “The only truly secure system is one that is
powered off, cast in a block of concrete and sealed in a lead-lined room
with armed guards—and even then, I have my doubts.”2 A system in such
a state might be secure, but it’s not usable or productive. As you increase
the level of security, you usually decrease the level of productivity.

What Is Information Security? 3
Additionally, when securing an asset, system, or environment, you must
consider how the level of security relates to the value of the item being
secured. If you’re willing to accommodate the decrease in performance,
you can apply very high levels of security to every asset for which you’re
responsible. You could build a billion-dollar facility surrounded by razor-
wire fences and patrolled by armed guards and vicious attack dogs, com-
plete with a hermetically sealed vault, to safeguard your mom’s chocolate
chip cookie recipe, but that would be overkill. The cost of the security you
put in place should never outstrip the value of what it’s protecting.
In some environments, however, such security measures might not be
enough. In any environment where you plan to put heightened levels of
security in place, you also need to consider the cost of replacing your assets
if you happen to lose them and make sure you establish reasonable levels of
protection for their value.
Defining the exact point at which you can be considered secure presents
a bit of a challenge. Are you secure if your systems are properly patched? Are
you secure if you use strong passwords? Are you secure if you’re disconnected
from the internet entirely? From my point of view, the answer to all these
questions is no. No single activity or action will make you secure in every
situation.
That’s because even if your systems are properly patched, there will
always be new attacks to which you’re vulnerable. When you’re using strong
passwords, an attacker will exploit a different avenue instead. When you’re
disconnected from the internet, an attacker could still physically access or
steal your systems. In short, it’s difficult to define when you’re truly secure.
On the other hand, defining when you’re insecure is a much easier task.
Here are several examples that would put you in this state:
• Not applying security patches or application updates to your systems
• Using weak passwords such as “password” or “1234”
• Downloading programs from the internet
• Opening email attachments from unknown senders
• Using wireless networks without encryption
I could go on for some time adding to this list. The good thing is that
once you can point out the areas in an environment that can make it inse-
cure, you can take steps to mitigate these issues. This problem is similar to
cutting something in half over and over. There will always be some small
portion left to cut in half again. Although you may never get to a state that
you can definitively call “secure,” you can take steps in the right direction.

T H I S L A W I S Y O U R L A W . . .
The bodies of law that define standards for security vary quite a bit from one
industry to another and differ wildly from one country to another. An example
of this is the difference in data privacy laws between the United States and the
European Union. Organizations that operate globally need to take care that
they’re not violating any such laws while conducting business. When in doubt,
consult legal counsel before acting.
Some bodies of law or regulations do try to define what secure means, or
at least some of the steps you should take to be “secure enough.” The Payment
Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) applies to companies that pro-
cess credit card payments, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act of 1996 (HIPAA) is for organizations that handle healthcare and patient
records, the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) defines
security standards for many federal agencies in the United States, and there
are a host of others. Whether these standards are effective is debatable, but
following the security standards defined for the industry in which you’re operat-
ing is advisable, if not mandated.
Models for Discussing Security Issues
When discussing security issues, it’s often helpful to have a model that you
can use as a foundation or a baseline. This provides a consistent set of ter-
minology and concepts that we, as security professionals, can refer to.
The Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability Triad
Three of the primary concepts in information security are confidentiality,
integrity, and availability, commonly known as the confidentiality, integrity,
and availability (CIA) triad, as shown in Figure 1-1.
Confidentiality Integrity
Availability

What Is Information Security? 5
The CIA triad is a model by which you can think about and discuss
security concepts. It’s also sometimes written as CAI or expressed in its
negative form as disclosure, alteration, and denial (DAD).
Confidentiality
Confidentiality refers to our ability to protect our data from those who are not
authorized to view it. You could implement confidentiality at many levels of a
process.
As an example, imagine a person is withdrawing money from an ATM.
The person in question will likely seek to maintain the confidentiality of the
personal identification number (PIN) that allows him to draw funds from
the ATM if he has his ATM card. Additionally, the owner of the ATM will
maintain the confidentiality of the account number, balance, and any other
information needed to communicate to the bank from which the funds are
being drawn. The bank will also maintain the confidentiality of the transac-
tion with the ATM and the balance change in the account after the funds
have been withdrawn.
Confidentiality can be compromised in a number of ways. You could
lose a laptop containing data. A person could look over your shoulder while
you enter a password. You could send an email attachment to the wrong
person, or an attacker could penetrate your systems, to name a few ways.
Integrity
Integrity is the ability to prevent people from changing your data in an
unauthorized or undesirable manner. To maintain integrity, not only
do you need to have the means to prevent unauthorized changes to your
data, but you need the ability to reverse unwanted authorized changes.
A good example of mechanisms that allow you to control integrity are
in the file systems of many modern operating systems, such as Windows and
Linux. For the purposes of preventing unauthorized changes, such systems
often implement permissions that restrict what actions an unauthorized user
can perform on a given file. For example, the owner of a file might have per-
mission to read it and write to it, while others might have permission only
to read, or no permission to access it at all. Additionally, some such systems
and many applications, such as databases, can allow you to undo or roll back
changes that are undesirable.
Integrity is particularly important when it concerns data that provides
the foundation for other decisions. If an attacker were to alter the data that
contained the results of medical tests, a doctor might prescribe the wrong
treatment, which could kill the patient.
Availability
The final leg of the CIA triad is availability. Availability refers to the ability to
access our data when we need it. You could lose availability due to a power
loss, operating system or application problems, network attacks, or the com-
promising of a system, for example. When an outside party, like an attacker,
causes such issues, we typically call this a denial-of-service (DoS) attack.

6 Chapter 1
How Does the CIA Triad Relate to Security?
Given the elements of the CIA triad, we can begin to discuss security issues
with more detail than we otherwise could. For example, let’s consider a ship-
ment of backup tapes on which you’ve stored the only existing, unencrypted
copies of some sensitive data.
If you were to lose the shipment in transit, you would have a security
issue. This is likely to include a breach of confidentiality since your files were
not encrypted. The lack of encryption could also cause integrity issues. If you
recover the tapes in the future, it may not be immediately obvious to you if
an attacker had altered the unencrypted files, as you would have no good way
to discern altered from unaltered data. As for availability, you’ll have an issue
unless the tapes are recovered since you don’t have backup copies of the files.
Although you can describe the situation in this example with relative
accuracy using the CIA triad, you might find that the model is too restric-
tive to describe the entire situation. A more extensive model, the Parkerian
hexad, exists for these cases.
The Parkerian Hexad
The Parkerian hexad, a less well-known model named after Donn Parker
and introduced in his book Fighting Computer Crime, provides a somewhat
more complex variation of the classic CIA triad. Where the CIA triad con-
sists only of confidentiality, integrity, and availability, the Parkerian hexad
consists of these three principles as well as possession or control, authentic-
ity, and utility,3 for a total of six principles, as shown in Figure 1-2.
Confidentiality
Possession
Availability Utility
Integrity
Authenticity

What Is Information Security? 7
Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability
As I mentioned, the Parkerian hexad includes the three principles of the
CIA triad, with the same definitions just discussed. Parker describes integ-
rity slightly differently; he doesn’t account for authorized, but incorrect,
modification of data. For him, the data must be whole and completely
unchanged from its previous state.
Possession or Control
In the Parkerian hexad, possession or control refers to the physical disposition
of the media on which the data is stored. This enables you to discuss your
loss of the data in its physical medium without involving other factors such
as availability. Returning to the example of your lost shipment of backup
tapes, let’s say that some of them were encrypted and some of them were
not. The principle of possession would enable you to more accurately
describe the scope of the incident; the encrypted tapes in the lot cause
a possession problem but not a confidentiality problem, while the unen-
crypted tapes cause a problem on both counts.
Authenticity
The principle of authenticity allows you to say whether you’ve attributed the
data in question to the proper owner or creator. For example, if you send
an email message that is altered so that it appears to have come from a dif-
ferent email address than the one from which it was actually sent, you would
be violating the authenticity of the email. Authenticity can be enforced using
digital signatures, which I’ll discuss further in Chapter 5.
A similar, but reversed, concept to this is nonrepudiation, which prevents
people from taking an action, such as sending an email and then later deny-
ing that they have done so. I’ll discuss nonrepudiation at greater length in
Chapter 4 as well.
Utility
Finally, utility refers to how useful the data is to you. Utility is also the only
principle of the Parkerian hexad that is not necessarily binary in nature;
you can have a variety of degrees of utility, depending on the data and its
format. This is a somewhat abstract concept, but it does prove useful in dis-
cussing certain situations in the security world.
For instance, in the shipment of backup tapes example, imagine that
some of the tapes were encrypted and some were not. For an attacker or
other unauthorized person, the encrypted tapes would likely be of very little
utility, as the data would not be readable. The unencrypted tapes would be of
much greater utility, as the attacker or unauthorized person would be able to
access the data.

8 Chapter 1
The concepts discussed in both the CIA triad and the Parkerian hexad
provide a practical basis to discuss all the ways in which something can go
wrong in the world of information security. These models enable you to
better discuss the attacks that you might face and the types of controls
that you need to put in place to combat them.
Attacks
You may face attacks from a wide variety of approaches and angles. You can
break these down according to the type of attack, the risk the attack repre-
sents, and the controls you might use to mitigate it.
Types of Attacks
You can generally place attacks into one of four categories: interception,
interruption, modification, and fabrication. Each of the categories can affect
one or more of the principles of the CIA triad, as shown in Figure 1-3.
Interception
Interruption
Modification
Fabrication
Interruption
Modification

A
Figure 1-3: The CIA triad and categories of attacks
The line between the categories of attack and the effects they can
have are somewhat blurry. Depending on the attack in question, you
might include it in more than one category or have more than one type
of effect.
Interception
Interception attacks allow unauthorized users to access your data, appli-
cations, or environments, and they are primarily attacks against confi-
dentiality. Interception might take the form of unauthorized file viewing
or copying, eavesdropping on phone conversations, or reading someone
else’s email, and you can conduct it against data at rest or in motion (con-
cepts explained in the “Data at Rest and in Motion” box). When they’re
properly executed, interception attacks can be difficult to detect.

What Is Information Security? 9
D A T A A T R E S T A N D I N M O T I O N
You will find, repeatedly throughout this book, that I refer to data being either
“at rest” or “in motion,” so let’s talk about what this means. Data at rest is stored
data that is not in the process of being moved from one place to another. It
may be on a hard drive or flash drive, or it may be stored in a database, for
example. This type of data is generally protected with some sort of encryption,
often at the level of the file or entire storage device.
Data in motion is data that is moving from one place to another. When
you are using your online banking session, the sensitive data flowing between
your web browser and your bank is data in motion. Data in motion is also
protected by encryption, but in this case the encryption protects the network
protocol or path used to move the data from one place to another.
Some may also posit a third category, data in use. Data in use would
be data that an application or individual was actively accessing or modify-
ing. Protections on data in use would include permissions and authentication
of users. Often you will find the concept of data in use conflated with data
in motion. Sound arguments can be made on both sides about whether we
should treat this type of data as its own category.
Interruption
Interruption attacks make your assets unusable or unavailable to you on a
temporary or permanent basis. These attacks often affect availability but
can affect integrity, as well. You would classify a DoS attack on a mail server
as an availability attack.
On the other hand, if an attacker manipulated the processes on which
a database runs to prevent access to the data it contains, you might consider
this an integrity attack because of the possible loss or corruption of data,
or you might consider it a combination of the two. You might also consider
such a database attack to be a modification attack rather than an interrup-
tion attack, as you’ll see next.
Modification
Modification attacks involve tampering with an asset. Such attacks might
primarily be considered attacks on integrity but could also represent attacks
on availability. If you access a file in an unauthorized manner and alter the
data it contains, you’ve affected the integrity of the file’s data. However, if the
file in question is a configuration file that manages how a service behaves—
perhaps one that is acting as a web server—changing the contents of the file
might affect the availability of that service. If the configuration you altered in
the file for your web server changes how the server deals with encrypted con-
nections, you could even call this a confidentiality attack.

10 Chapter 1
Fabrication
Fabrication attacks involve generating data, processes, communications, or
other similar material with a system. Like the last two attack types, fabrica-
tion attacks primarily affect integrity but could affect availability, as well.
Generating fake information in a database would be a kind of fabrication
attack. You could also generate email, a common method for propagating
malware. If you generated enough additional processes, network traffic,
email, web traffic, or nearly anything else that consumes resources, you
might be conducting an availability attack by rendering the service that
handles such traffic unavailable to legitimate users.
Threats, Vulnerabilities, and Risk
To speak more specifically about attacks, I need to introduce a few new terms.
When you look at how an attack might affect you, you can speak of it in terms
of threats, vulnerabilities, and the associated risk.
Threats
When I spoke of the types of attacks you might encounter earlier in this
chapter, I discussed several types of attacks that could harm your assets—
for instance, the unauthorized modification of data. Ultimately, a threat is
something that has the potential to cause harm. Threats tend to be specific
to certain environments, particularly in the world of information security.
For example, although a virus might be problematic on a Windows operat-
ing system, the same virus will be unlikely to have any effect on a Linux
operating system.
Vulnerabilities
Vulnerabilities are weaknesses, or holes, that threats can exploit to cause
you harm. A vulnerability might involve a specific operating system or appli-
cation that you’re running, the physical location of your office building,
a data center that is overpopulated with servers and producing more heat
than its air-conditioning system can handle, a lack of backup generators, or
other factors.
Risk
Risk is the likelihood that something bad will happen. For you to have a risk
in an environment, you need to have both a threat and a vulnerability that
the threat could exploit. For example, if you have a structure that is made
from wood and you light a fire nearby, you have both a threat (the fire) and
a matching vulnerability (the wood structure). In this case, you most defi-
nitely have a risk.
Likewise, if you have the same threat of fire but your structure is made
of concrete, you no longer have a credible risk because your threat doesn’t
have a vulnerability to exploit. You could argue that a sufficiently hot flame
could damage the concrete, but this is a much less likely event.

What Is Information Security? 11
We often talk about potential, but unlikely, attacks in computing envi-
ronments. The best strategy is to spend your time mitigating the most likely
attacks. If you sink your resources into trying to plan for every possible attack,
however unlikely, you’ll spread yourself thin and lack protection where you
need it the most.
Impact
Some organizations, such as the US National Security Agency (NSA), add a
factor to the threat/vulnerability/risk equation called impact. Impact takes
into account the value of the asset being threatened and uses it to calcu-
late risk. In the backup tape example, if you consider that the unencrypted
tapes contain only your collection of chocolate chip cookie recipes, you may
not actually have a risk because the data exposed contains nothing sensitive
and you can make additional backups from the source data. In this case, you
might safely say that you have no risk.
Risk Management
Risk management processes compensate for risks in your environment.

As you can see, you need to identify your important assets, figure out
the potential threats against them, assess your vulnerabilities, and then take
steps to mitigate these risks.
Identify Assets
One of the first and, arguably, most important parts of the risk management
process is identifying the assets you’re protecting. If you can’t enumerate your
assets and evaluate the importance of each, protecting them can become a
difficult task indeed.
Although this may sound like an exceedingly simple task, it can be a
more complex problem than it might seem on the surface, particularly in
larger enterprises. In many cases, an organization might have various gen-
erations of hardware, assets from acquisitions of other companies lurking in
unknown areas, and scores of unrecorded virtual hosts in use, any of which
may be critical to the continued functionality of the business.
Once you’ve identified the assets in use, deciding which of them are
critical business assets is another question entirely. Making an accurate
determination of which assets are truly critical to conducting business will
generally require the input of functions that make use of the asset, those
that support the asset itself, and potentially other involved parties as well.
