  • What is the difference between physical security measures and notice measures?
  • Measures that a company can take are often considered in both notice measures and physical security measures. Notice measures are those measures that put persons who come in contact with the information on notice that the information is to remain secret. Physical security measures are those measures that prevent people who do not need-to-know the information from coming in contact with the information (e.g., confidentiality barriers). Example 1 above shows notice measures, but a complete lack of physical security. Notice measures and physical security measures often overlap even though they are discussed separately below.
