OBS

Une des principales mesures de sécurité techniques est le contrôle de l'accès au système. (...) Les exigences relatives à la nature délicate du système et au contrôle de l'accès correspondant déterminent le choix de mesures de contrôle obligatoires ou discrétionnaires à cet égard. Les systèmes de nature très délicate doivent être dotés de mesures de contrôle de l'accès rigoureuses afin de limiter les possibilités d'intervention des utilisateurs.
