Most technology-based controls can becircumvented if an attacker gains physical access to the devices being controlled. In otherwords, if it is easy to steal the hard drives from a computer system, then the information onthose hard drives is not secure. Therefore, physical security is just as important as logicalsecurity to an informationsecurity program(Mattord, 2012).
