Security Levels

Security Level

A security level is a collection of security requirements plus a name and a description. The sole purpose of security levels is to reuse the same set of security requirements for multiple projects, which we will get to in the next chapter.

It may be the case that there needs to be a security level that encompasses a valid driver's license and a valid passport. We can create a new security level called "Valid US permits" and we will add the license and passport requirements to it as seen below.
