environments that process,
transmit, and store our data
Controls that protect the Physical controls
physical environment in which
our systems sit, or where our
data is stored
The risk management phase that Preparation phase
consists of all of the activities
that we can perform in advance
of the incident itself, in order to
better enable us to handle it
The risk management phase Detection and analysis phase
where we detect the occurrence
of an issue and decide whether
it is actually an incident so that
we can respond to it
appropriately
The biometric characteristic that E.Permanence

resists change over time and
with advancing age is called
__________.
