Core Concepts

1. Requirement Categories

Business Requirements → Security Requirements → Technical Controls
         ↓                       ↓                      ↓
  "Protect customer    "Encrypt PII at rest"   "AES-256 encryption
   data"                                        with KMS key rotation"

2. Security Requirement Types

Type	Focus	Example
Functional	What system must do	"System must authenticate users"
Non-functional	How system must perform	"Authentication must complete in <2s"
Constraint	Limitations imposed	"Must use approved crypto libraries"
