Description: High Assurance is a term used to describe systems that provide a high level of security assurance. These systems are designed to protect the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of information, ensuring that data is accessible only to authorized users and that it is not altered or destroyed without authorization. High Assurance refers to the implementation of robust security controls and the adoption of rigorous standards that allow organizations to manage and mitigate security risks. This includes the use of advanced technologies, such as Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), which facilitates authentication and data encryption, as well as cloud security posture management, which ensures that security configurations and policies are appropriate and kept up to date. Additionally, High Assurance relates to various security frameworks and standards, including mandatory access control systems, and to security in next-generation networks, where the aim is to protect communication and data in an increasingly interconnected environment. Finally, security solutions like antivirus software and endpoint protection tools are examples of applications that implement High Assurance measures to protect devices against malware and other threats.
