1. acceptable use policy (AUP) A document that stipulates restrictions and practices that a
user must agree in order to use organizational computing
and network resources.

2. acceptance When an organization decides to accept a risk because the
cost of avoiding the risk outweighs the potential loss of the
risk. A decision to accept a risk can be extremely difficult
and controversial when dealing with safety-critical systems
because making that determination involves forming per-
sonal judgments about the value of human life, assessing
potential liability in case of an accident, evaluating the
potential impact on the surrounding natural environment,
and estimating the system's costs and benefits.

3. advanced persistent threat (APT) A network attack in which an intruder gains access to a net-
work and stays there—undetected—with the intention of
stealing data over a long period of time (weeks or even
months).

4. agile development A software development methodology in which a system
is developed in iterations lasting from one to four weeks.
Unlike the waterfall system development model, agile de-
velopment accepts the fact that system requirements are
evolving and cannot be fully understood or defined at the
start of the project.



5. Agreement on Trade-Related As- An agreement of the World Trade Organization that re-
pects of Intellectual Property quires member governments to ensure that intellectual
Rights (TRIPS) property rights can be enforced under their laws and that
penalties for infringement are tough enough to deter fur-
ther violations.

6. American Recovery and Rein- A wide-ranging act that authorized $787 billion in spend-
vestment Act ing and tax cuts over a 10-year period and included strong
privacy provisions for electronic health records, such as
banning the sale of health information, promoting the
use of audit trails and encryption, and providing rights of
access for patients.

7. annualized loss expectancy (ALE) The estimated loss from a potential risk event over the
course of a year. The following equation is used to calculate
the annual loss expectancy: ARO × SLE = ALE. Where ARO
is the annualized rate of occurrence, an estimate of the
probability that this event will occur over the course of a
year and SLE is the single loss expectancy, the estimated
loss that would be incurred if the event happens.

8. annualized rate of occurrence An estimate of the probability that a risk event will occur
(ARO) over the course of a year.

9. anonymous expression The expression of opinions by people who do not reveal
their identity.

10. anonymous remailer service A service that allows anonymity on the Internet by using
a computer program that strips the originating header
and/or IP address from the message and then forwards
the message to its intended recipient.

11. anti-SLAPP laws Laws designed to reduce frivolous SLAPPs (strategic law-
suit against public participation (SLAPP), which is a law-
suit filed by corporations, government officials, and others
against citizens and community groups who oppose them
on matters of concern).
