HIPAA applies to healthcare providers, insurers, and their business associates to protect patient health information (PHI).

A guard dog deters unauthorized access by increasing perceived risk. Deterrent controls discourage attacks before they occur.

The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) develops and maintains Internet standards through RFCs.

A session token is used to maintain a user’s authenticated state after login. Once a user successfully authenticates, the server issues a session token that is stored by the client and sent with subsequent requests.

The server uses this token to identify the user without requiring reauthentication on every request. Session tokens must be protected against theft through secure cookies, encryption, and proper expiration.

CAPTCHAs prevent automated abuse, API keys authenticate applications, and CSRF tokens prevent request forgery. Only session tokens authenticate users across requests.

Proper session management is critical for web application security and is emphasized in OWASP and NIST guidance.

OAuth uses tokens to grant limited access without exposing credentials, making it a widely used token-based authentication method.

Criticality reflects how essential an asset is to business operations or mission success. It influences prioritization, recovery planning, and protection strategies.

An IPS monitors traffic, detects malicious activity, and actively blocks attacks. Encryption is handled by protocols such as TLS or IPSec, not IPS devices.
