Physical security

QuestionAnswer
physical security Measures taken to protect tangible assets, like buildings, equipment, and people, from Harmer unauthorized access (security cameras)
bollards short, sturdy vertical posts designed to control or prevent access by vehicles to an area or structure. Keep vehicles from building. physical barrier that shields pedestrians and structures.
Fence structure that encloses an area using interconnected panels or posts
attacking with brute force
surveillance system organized strategy or setup designed to observe and report activities in a given area
access control vestibule Double-door system with two electronically controlled doors that ensure only one door is open at any given moment
piggybacking two people, with and without access, entering a secure area
tailgating whenever an unauthorized person closely follows someone with access without their knowledge or consent
Doorlocks padlocks, simple pin and tumbler, numeric, wireless, biometric , cipher, electronic access control systems
Fence purpose provide visual deterrent by defining a boundary, establishes a physical barrier against unauthorized entry, delays intruders
brute force Attack where access to a system is gained by trying all of the possibilities until breaking through
Forcible entry Act of gaining unauthorized access to a space by physically, breaking or bypassing its barriers, such as windows, doors, or fences
Tampering with security devices Involves manipulating security devices to create new vulnerabilities that can be exploited
Confronting security personnel Involves a direct confrontation or attack of a security personnel
Ramming a barrier with a vehicle brute force attack that uses a car, truck, or other motorized vehicle to ram into the organization of physical security barriers
Surveillance systems Maintain the security and safety of facilities, including business, home, or commonly used public areas (security guards and security systems)
four categories of surveillance video surveillance, security guards, lighting, sensors
what type of control are surveillance cameras? wired version(wired to the building), wireless version (relies on wi-fi) CCTV. Indoor (withstand harsh conditions) and outdoor systems
Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) can move the camera or its angle to better detect issues during an intrusion
common camera placements? data center, telecommunications closets, entrance or exit areas
security guards Flexible and adaptable forms of surveillance that organization issues use
lighting proper lighting is crucial for conducting effective surveillance using both video and security guards
sensors devices that detect and respond to external changes in the environment and convert the information into readable signals or data
infrared sensors detect changes in infrared radiation that is emitted by warm bodies like humans or animals
pressure sensors activate when a specified minimum amount of weight is detected on the sensor that is embedded into the floor or a mat
microwave sensors Detect movement in an area by emitting microwave pulses and measuring their reflection of moving objects
ultrasonic sensors Measure the reflection of ultrasonic waves off moving objects
visual obstruction Walking to car line of sight(paint on camera, etc)
blind sensors and cameras overwhelming the sensor or camera with a sudden burst of light to render it ineffective for a limited period of time
acoustic interference jamming or playing loud music to disrupt the microphone's functionality (white noise machines, noise jamming devices)
electromagnetic interference (EMI) Jamming the signals that surveillance systems rely on to monitor the enviornment
physical environment attack Exploiting the environment around the surveillance equivalent to compromise his functionality
countermeasures to protect surveillance systems tamper alarms, backup power supplies/UPS, encrypt frequencies
access control vestibule Double-door system that is designed with two doors that are electronically controlled to ensure that only one door can be opened at a given time
piggybacking Person with Legitimate Access intentionally allows another person without authorization to enter a secure area with them
door locks Physical security control that is designed to secure entryways by restricting and regulating access to a particular space or property
False Acceptance Rate (FAR) Rate that the system authenticates a user as valid, even though that person should not have been granted access to the system
equal error rate (EER) Crossover error rate (CER), which uses a measure of the effectiveness of a given biometric system to achieve a balance
cypher lock excellent protection using a mechanical looking mechanism with push buttons that are numbered and require a person to enter the correct combination in order to open that door
Radio frequency identification contactless authentication in various applications
NFC contactless authentication in various applications
Access Badge Cloning copying the data from an RFID or NFC card or badge onto another card or device
How does an attacker clone that access badge? scanning, data extraction, writing to a new card, using a cloned access badge
RFID Lock electronic locking mechanism that uses Radio Frequency Identification technology to grant access. Card or key fob convenience and rapid access control, especially in environments requiring quick secure entry.
Cipher Lock mechanical locking system that uses push buttons, often numbered, and requires the correct combination to be entered for access.
biometric lock
PIN lock

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:
