Increased demand in security & surveillance

Description

Security's principal purpose is to create an environment for quality of life or business.

The fundamental categories, or functions, of security are:

Authentication, which involves identifying or describing people or systems, authorization which is about setting limits, boundaries, and expectations of behaviour. Administration which is the processes of managing (adding, removing, modifying) identities or privileges of a secure system or group of people is also included and audit which is about evaluating the effectiveness of existing authentication, authorization or administration processes.

Surveillance is the monitoring of behavior. Systems surveillance is the process of monitoring the behavior of people, objects or processes within systems for conformity to expected or desired norms in trusted systems for security or social control.
