"You'll be freeeeee hackers, you'll be freeee-ee-e-e hackers..."

Must. Get. Song. Out. Of. Head.

Sigh.

Not the tune I expected

Based on your lyrics, I was expecting Tom Petty's Free Fallin to be the tune...

She's a good coder, livin down in Houston,
Loves Open Source, and the FSF too.
She's a good coder, crazy 'bout Stallman,
Loves Linux, and BSD too.

It's a long day, scriptin' for Windoze,
There's an buffer, overflowin the code.
He's a bad tech, cause he don't even help her,
He's a bad tech, for closin his source.

But we're freeeee, free hackers
Yeah we're freeeee, free hackin'

...sadly, I could probably go on.

Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
