Security Vulnerabilities Vulnerabilities associated with Hardware and Hardware Security Policy Physical security encompasses the design, implementation, and maintenance of countermeasures that protect the physical resources of an organization, including the people, hardware, and supporting system elements and resources that control information in all its states (transmission, storage, and processing). Most technology - based controls can be circumvented if an attacker gains physical access to the devices being controlled. In other words, if it is easy to steal the hard drives from a computer system, then the information on those hard drives is not secure. Therefore, physical security is just as important as logical security to an information security program (Mattord, 2012) .
