users are: Physical security: Physical security depends on the ICT infrastructure and
workplace various threats. Operational security: Operational security depends on the factor
that operations and works must be done in a proper way without any physical interaction.
When?
The need of the security is needed when there are these two following cases.
Communicational security: Protections of the communications media and proper
