The subversion of [[computer]]s or their unauthorized use is referred to using the terms ''[[cyberwarfare]]'', ''[[cybercrime]]'', or ''[[Security hacker|security hacking]]'' (later shortened to ''hacking'' for further references in this article due to issues with ''[[hacker]]'', ''[[hacker culture]]'' and differences in [[White hat (computer security)|white]]/[[Grey hat|grey]]/[[Black hat (computer security)|black]] 'hat' color identification).
The computer security software products industry was launched in the second half of the 1970s when computer firms and new IT startups chose alternative paths to offer commercial access control systems to organizational mainframe computer users. These developments were led by [[IBM]]'s [[Resource Access Control Facility]] and SKK's Access Control Facility 2.<ref>{{Cite

A critical tool used in developing software that prevents malicious access is ''Threat Modeling''.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Bodeau|first1=Deborah J.|last2=McCollum|first2=Catherine D.|last3=Fox|first3=David B.|date=2018-04-07|title=Cyber Threat Modeling: Survey, Assessment, and Representative Framework|url=https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/citations/AD1108051|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210929040958/https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/citations/AD1108051|url-status=live|archive-date=September 29, 2021|language=en}}</ref> Threat modeling is the process of creating and applying mock situations where an attacker could be trying to maliciously access data in [[cyberspace]]. By doing this, various profiles of potential attackers are created, including their intentions, and a catalog of potential vulnerabilities are created for the respective organization to fix before a real threat arises.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Threat Modeling: 12 Available Methods|url=https://insights.sei.cmu.edu/blog/threat-modeling-12-available-methods/|access-date=2021-10-04|website=SEI Blog|date=2 December 2018 |language=en}}</ref> Threat modeling covers a wide aspect of cyberspace, including devices, applications, systems, networks, or enterprises.

====Surveillance monitor====
These programs use algorithms either stolen from, or provided by, the police and military internet observation organizations to provide the equivalent of a police [[Radio scanner]]. Most of these systems are born out of [[mass surveillance]] concepts for internet traffic, cell phone communication, and physical systems like [[CCTV]]. In a global perspective they are related to the fields of [[SIGINT]] and [[ELINT]] and approach [[Geospatial intelligence|GEOINT]] in the global information monitoring perspective.
