Security management is one of the key functional areas in open systems network management. Two key aspects of security management are managing user security services and providing security to network management systems. These are examined in turn to give the reader an overview of the state-of-the-art in security management. The ISO OSI Reference Model is used as a basis to present the security threats, security services and mechanisms which have to be managed. Telecommunications management networks are used as an example of management applications which both provide management and require the provision of security and security management services. The OSI approach to network management is examined in detail. This is followed by a survey of the categories of OSI security management activities, and a discussion of the security management needs of various common security services. The need for security for network management systems is examined.
