{tableName=glossary, name=Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), description= Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) are a type of network security technology that are designed to detect and prevent malicious activity on a network. IPS systems monitor network traffic for suspicious activity and can be configured to block or alert administrators of malicious activity. IPS systems can detect and stop a variety of network threats, including malware, worms, viruses, and unauthorized access attempts. They can also detect and stop malicious activities such as port scans, buffer overflows, and denial of service attacks. IPS systems can be deployed in either a passive or active mode, depending on the desired level of security. In passive mode, the IPS system monitors network traffic and takes no action, while in active mode, the IPS system can be configured to immediately block or alert administrators of suspicious activity. IPS systems can be deployed in either a hardware or software form, and are often used in conjunction with other security solutions such as firewalls, antivirus software, and intrusion detection systems., topic=[{id=97620570528, createdAt=1673040885452, updatedAt=1715624222504, path='cybersecurity-risk-management', name=' Cybersecurity Risk Management: A Guide for Businesses', 1='{type=string, value=Cybersecurity Risk Management}', 2='{type=string, value= This guide provides essential information on cyber security risk management, including how to identify, assess, and mitigate risks to your organization's data and systems.

{tableName=glossary, name=Risk Financing, description= Risk financing is a type of financial management strategy used to protect an organization from the financial impact of losses due to risks. It involves a combination of risk transfer, risk retention, and risk control measures to manage the costs associated with potential losses. Risk transfer is the process of transferring the financial responsibility of a risk to another party, such as an insurance company. Risk retention is the process of keeping the financial responsibility for a risk within the organization, such as through self-insurance or a risk pool. Risk control is the process of implementing measures to reduce the likelihood of a risk occurring. Risk financing also includes the use of financial instruments, such as hedging, to manage the financial impact of risks., topic=[{id=97620570509, createdAt=1673040885334, updatedAt=1715624292575, path='enterprise-risk-management', name=' Enterprise Risk Management Guide: A Comprehensive Guide', 1='{type=string, value=Enterprise Risk Management}', 2='{type=string, value= This guide provides an overview of Enterprise Risk Management and its processes, enabling you to develop a risk management strategy and plan for your organization.

{tableName=glossary, name=Access Control, description= Access control is the process of granting or denying specific requests to obtain information or resources from a particular system. It is a security measure designed to limit access to a system, service, or resource to only those authorized users, processes, or other systems that have been granted permission to access it. Access control systems are used to protect data, networks, and other resources from unauthorized access. Access control is a critical component of security and is used to protect confidential information, prevent unauthorized access to systems, and protect against malicious activities. Access control can be implemented in a variety of ways, including physical security, logical security, and biometric security. Physical security measures involve the use of locks, fences, and other physical barriers to prevent unauthorized access. Logical security measures involve the use of passwords, encryption, and other digital security measures to protect data and resources from unauthorized access. Biometric security measures involve the use of biometric data such as fingerprints, voice recognition, and facial recognition to verify the identity of a user before granting access., topic=[{id=97620570528, createdAt=1673040885452, updatedAt=1715624222504, path='cybersecurity-risk-management', name=' Cybersecurity Risk Management: A Guide for Businesses', 1='{type=string, value=Cybersecurity Risk Management}', 2='{type=string, value= This guide provides essential information on cyber security risk management, including how to identify, assess, and mitigate risks to your organization's data and systems.
