FITS OM: Security Administration
The primary goals of Security Administration are to ensure data confidentiality, integrity and availability together with asset security.
| Data confidentiality | No one should be able to view a school's data without authorisation. |
|---|---|
| Data integrity | All authorised users should feel confident that the data presented to them is accurate and not improperly modified. |
| Data availability | Authorised users should be able to access the data they need when they need it. |
| Asset security | The school's physical network assets should be protected and made available for use by authorised users only. |
Security Administration is the function for maintaining a safe computing environment in a school. Security is a vital part of the school network: An ICT infrastructure with a weak security foundation will eventually experience a security breach, which will result in the loss of confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data.
