    Information security is the collection of technologies, standards, policies and management practices that are applied to information to keep it secure. Organizations are becoming more dependent on information systems, so information security is important. The three basic information security concepts are confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Protection in the plan-protect-respond cycle involves creating operations and countermeasures according to the plan, while response recovers according to the plan. Understanding the threat environment is needed so we know who the attackers are and how they may attack, which allows for better defense.
