The primary purpose of countermeasures is specifically to mitigate vulnerabilities.
As with vulnerabilities, I divide countermeasures into the following categories — these categories correspond to the implementation type of the countermeasure, not the vulnerability it addresses:
Technical countermeasure: Mitigates vulnerabilities by using technical tools. A software tool used to fix a technical flaw is a technical countermeasure. Multifactor authentication is a technical countermeasure that can mitigate an operational weakness of poor security awareness as demonstrated by users who don’t know not to divulge their passwords. Awareness messages embedded in screen savers are also technical countermeasures.
Physical countermeasure: Uses physical tools, such as reminder signs, to mitigate vulnerabilities.
Personnel countermeasure: Involves tools that address the human resources (HR) process, such as a security awareness presentation into new hire orientation.
Operational countermeasure: Addresses how work is performed, which may also include the identification of governance. This may include how to properly identify callers asking for protected information.
