1. Information, the loss, misuse, or unauthorized access to or modification of, which could adversely affect the national interest or the conduct of federal programs, or the privacy to which individuals are entitled under 5 U. S. C. Section 552a (the Privacy Act,) but that has not been specifically authorized under criteria established by an Executive Order or an Act of Congress to be kept classified in the interest of national defense or foreign policy. (Systems that are not national security systems, but contain sensitive information, are to be protected in accordance with the requirements of the Computer Security Act of 1987 (P. L. 100-235. )) 2. Information that, as determined by a competent authority, must be protected because its unauthorized disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction will at least cause perceivable damage to someone or something.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. Information, other than cryptographic keys, that is needed to establish and describe the protection mechanisms that secure the communications between two entities. 2. A security attribute is a piece of security information which is associated with an entity in a distributed system. 3. Attributes associated with processes and files and used to determine access rights of a subject to an object.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. Information used to establish the validity of a claimed identity of an entity. 2. Information used to establish the validity of a claimed identity.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. Information retrieved from a functional unit or from a network, usually after some processing. 2. An output state, or sequence of states. 3. Pertaining to a device, process, or channel involved in the production of data by a computer or by any of its components. 4. Information that has been exported by a TCB.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. Information representing the sensitivity of a subject or object, such as its hierarchical classification ("confidential," "secret," "top secret") together with any applicable nonhierarchical security categories (e.g., sensitive compartmented information, critical nuclear weapon design information. ) Synonym security classification. 2. The marking bound to a resource (which may be a data unit) that names or designates the security attributes of that resource. Note: The marking may be explicit or implicit.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. Information representing elements of the security label (s) of a subject and an object. Sensitivity labels are used by the trusted computing base (TCB) as the basis for mandatory access control decisions. 2. A piece of information that represents the security level of an object and that describes the sensitivity (e.g., classification) of the data in the object. Sensitivity labels are used by the TCB as the basis for mandatory access control decisions.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. Information (usually a sequence of random or pseudorandom binary digits) used initially to set up and periodically change the operations performed in crypto-equipment for the purpose of encrypting or decrypting electronic data, for determining electronic counter-countermeasures patterns (e.g., frequency hopping or spread spectrum ,) or for producing other key. Note: "Key" has replaced the terms "variable," "key (ing) variable," and "cryptovariable. " 2. Usually a sequence of random or pseudorandom bits used initially to set up and periodically change the operations performed in crypto-equipment for the purpose of encrypting or decrypting electronic signals, or for determining electronic counter-countermeasures patterns (e.g., frequency hopping or spread spectrum,) or for producing other key. 3. A sequence of symbols that controls the operations of encipherment and decipherment.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. In videotape editing, a process or technique employed to (a) enhance (e.g., remove noise from, or introduce some kind of special effect into,) (b) add to, or (c) replace totally, the originally recorded audio (if any,) without modifying the originally recorded video signal. 2. In audiotape editing or mixing, a process analogous to any of the above, performed (a) on a single audio channel, or (b) on one or more audio channels of a multi-track recording without modifying the other channel (s. ) 3. The copying of one or more audio signals from one storage medium, location, or format to another with or without modification or enhancement.
Industry:Telecommunications
1. In video teleconferencing, the light from a nonselective diffuse reflector (in the original scene) that is lighted by the normal illumination of the scene; i.e., that white with which the display device simulates reference white of the original scene. 2. In the context of video production, the luminance of a white card having 90% reflectance, and subjected to scene illumination. Note: Usually there will be some discrimination of surface texture or detail within that portion of the transfer function incorporating reference white.
