Identify assets
Protects information and information systems from unauthorized access, use,
disclosure, disruption, modification, or destruction

A type of attack, primarily against confidentiality
Interception
Something that has the potential to cause harm to our assets
Threat
A weakness that can be used to harm us
Vulnerability
The likelihood that something bad will happen

Controls that protect the physical environment in which our systems sit, or where
our data is stored
Physical controls
The risk management phase that 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
Preparation phase
The risk management 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
