Computer Security

Computer security or Home Computer Security is the effort 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.

Home Computer Security is a effort to make a secure computing platform for home users.
The actions in question can be reduced to operations of access, modification and deletion. Computer security can be seen as a subfield of security engineering, which looks at broader security issues in addition to computer security.
Computer security is the process of preventing and detecting unauthorized use of your computer. Prevention measures help you to stop unauthorized users (also known as "intruders") from accessing any part of your computer system.Detection helps you to determine whether or not someone attempted to break into your system, if they were successful, and what they may have done.
