 What is the importance of physical security when it comes To the
defence-in-depth
ANSWER :Physical security is very important, but it is usually overlooked by most
organizations. It is necessary if you do not want anyone to snatch away your
information or destroy it, in case of natural calamity. The reason could be anything, the
attacker doing it for personal gain, financial gain, for seeking revenge or you were the
vulnerable target available. If this security is not maintained properly, all the safety
measures will be useless once the attacker gets through by gaining physical access.
Though physical security is proving to be challenging than previous decades as there
are more sensitive devices available (like USB drives, laptops, smartphones, tablets,
etc.) that enables the stealing of data easy and smooth. Protecting important data,
confidential information, networks, software, equipment, facilities, company’s assets,
and personnel is what physical security is about. There are two factors by which the
security can be affected. First attack by nature like a flood, fire, power fluctuation, etc.
Though the information will not be misused, it is very hard to retrieve it and may cause
permanent loss of data. Second is attack by the malicious party, which includes
terrorism, vandalism, and theft. All the organization faces different kinds of physical
security threats. At its core, physical security is about keeping your facilities, people and
assets safe from real-world threats. It includes physical deterrence, detection of
intruders, and responding to those threats. Physical attacks could be breaking into a
secure data centre, sneaking into restricted areas of a building, or using terminals they
have no business accessing. Attackers could steal or damage important IT assets such
as servers or storage media, gain access to important terminals for mission critical
applications, steal information via USB, or upload malware onto your systems.

Direction: Write your ideas about the topic below.
Topic: What is/are the positive and negative effect of access control system in the
establishment? (30 points)

POSITIVE NEGATIVE

Advantage: Prevention of Theft Disadvantage: Hacking

An access control system's
primary task is to restrict access.
This is critical when access to a
person's account information is
sufficient to steal or alter the
owner's identity. Many websites
that require personal information
for their services, especially those
that need a person's credit card
information or a Social Security
number, are tasked with having
some sort of access control
system in place to keep this
information secure.
Access control systems can be
hacked. When a system is
hacked, a person has access to
several people's information,
depending on where the
information is stored. Wired
reported how one hacker created
a chip that allowed access into
secure buildings, for example. Not
only does hacking an access
control system make it possible
for the hacker to take information
from one source, but the hacker
can also use that information to
get through other control systems
 legitimately without being caught.
Despite access control systems
increasing in security, there are
still instances where they can be
tampered with and broken into.
