Implementing security measures for computer-based security systems

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/6137987· OSTI ID:6137987

The purpose of this document is to ensure that system designers (a) become familiar with security issues, policy, and directives and (b) are able to integrate protection of the computer, its peripherals, and its data into the system at an early stage in its design. This document provides a comprehensive and uniform review of those security issues that are pertinent to the applications developed within Directorate 5200. The intention of this document is to provide guidance in the development of appropriate computer security protection for the SNLA-developed security systems. The policies and standards of computer security, set forth by the Department of Defense (DOD) and the DOE, are provided to enhance the designers' understanding of the rationale for such security.
