This extensive glossary of information security and related terms is not a technical glossary: it is designed to help a manager, or someone new to the subject, identify the meaning of a particular term. A number of the terms used in this book are defined in ISO/IEC 27000:2009 - Security Techniques - Information security management systems - Overview and vocabulary; there are deviations between definitions in ISO27000 and those in other standards and, where this occurs, we show each of the definitions in this pocket guide.This book also draws on ISO/IEC Guide 73:2002 for those definitions that are used across the ISO27000 series of standards and, as the terminology of management systems is becoming part of the world of information security, a number of definitions from ISO9001:2005 - and which are applicable across all management systems - have also been included in this guide. The last couple of years have seen the arrival, in a big way, of the PCI DSS on the information security scene; PCI has brought with it a number of new acronyms and definitions and those are included in this glossary.
