IT Security is a field of computer science concerned with the control of risks related to computer use. The means traditionally taken to realize this objective is to attempt to create a secure computing platform, designed so that agents (users or programs) can only perform actions that have been allowed. This involves specifying and implementing a security policy. The actions in question can be reduced to operations of access, modification and deletion.

The last seven years have given rise to identity data theft and privacy concerns. For the past twenty years, organizations have focused on protecting the network; but in the last ten years it has become clear that the core threat is not, nor really ever was, access to the network.
