Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 9, Problem 16RQ
Explanation of Solution
Physical security:
Physical security is giving protection to physical items or objects or even areas from an unauthorized access. That is, it gives protection physically to people, system, hardware and some resources that are connected with the management.
Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning (HVAC):
Heating, ventilation as well as air conditioning system could have impact on operations of
Relationship between physical security and HVAC:
HVAC is considered as one of the physical security for many reasons. One of them is as follows:
- Heating: Temperature inside the organization should be maintained in order to avoid physical damage of electronic equipment.
- Ventilation: Channels should be built properly to prevent employees from gaining access to secured places that contains workstations or information...

Subject: Software Engineering
You are designing an intrusion detection system (IDS) to prevent theft at a bank occupying a 60-floor downtown Chicago building. IDS interfaces with motion sensors located both inside and outside of the building as its only means of sensing intrusion. IDS must satisfy the following:
Ensurethat a police officer arrives at the location of any intrusion quickly;
Makeany intruder run away quickly;
Ensure that a maintenance worker arrives at the location of any failed sensor quickly.
Question
Re-write each of these as an effective requirement
What's the difference between an active security scanner and an inactive one?
