ABOUT SECURE COMPUTING PROJECT 2019 – 2020
The Secure Computing Domain Aims To Give Precise Definitions Characterizing The Various Concepts That Come Into Play When Addressing The Dependability And Security Of Computing And Communication Systems. Clarifying These Concepts Is Surprisingly Difficult When We Discuss Systems In Which There Are Uncertainties About System Boundaries. Further-More, The Very Complexity Of Systems (And Their Specification) Is Often A Major Problem, The Determination Of Possible Causes Or Consequences Of Failure Can Be A Very Subtle Process

| 1 | The Secure Computing Domain aims to give precise definitions characterizing the various concepts that come into play when addressing the dependability and security of computing and communication systems. |
| 2 | Clarifying these concepts is surprisingly difficult when we discuss systems in which there are uncertainties about system boundaries |
| 3 | Further-more, the very complexity of systems (and their specification) is often a major problem, the determination of possible causes or consequences of failure can be a very subtle process, and there are (fallible) provisions for preventing faults from causing failures. |
| 4 | Secure computing is a term used for making secure networks where information can be transferred in a secure manner. |
| 5 | Increasingly, individuals and organizations are developing or procuring sophisticated computing systems on whose services they need to place great trust-whether to service a set of cash dispensers, control a satellite constellation, an airplane, a nuclear plant, or a radiation therapy device, or to maintain the confidentiality of a sensitive data base |
| 7 | In differing circumstances, the focus will be on differing properties of such services-e.g., on the average real-time response achieved, the likelihood of producing the required results, the ability to avoid failures that could be cata-strophic to the system’s environment, or the degree to which deliberate intrusions can be prevented. |
