Cyber Security Principles
The UK internet industry and Government recognized the need to develop a series of Guiding Principles for improving the online security of the ISPs' customers and limit the rise in cyber-attacks. Cybersecurity for these purposes encompasses the protection of essential information, processes, and systems, connected or stored online, with a broad view across the people, technical, and physical domains.
These Principles recognize that the ISPs (and other service providers), internet users, and UK Government all have a role in minimizing and mitigating the cyber threats inherent in using the internet.
These Guiding Principles have been developed to respond to this challenge by providing a consistent approach to help, inform, educate, and protect ISPs' (Internet Service Provider's) customers from online crimes. These Guiding Principles are aspirational, developed and delivered as a partnership between Government and ISPs. They recognize that ISPs have different sets of customers, offer different levels of support and services to protect those customers from cyber threats.
Some of the essential cybersecurity principles are described below-
- Economy of mechanism
- Fail-safe defaults
- Least Privilege
- Open Design
- Complete mediation
- Separation of Privilege
- Least Common Mechanism
- Psychological acceptability
- Work Factor
- Compromise Recording
