medir

Comparar una cantidad con su respectiva unidad, con el fin de averiguar cuántas veces la segunda está contenida en la primera.

DRAE. Diccionario de la Lengua Española.

medida

variable a la que se le asigna un valor como resultado de una medición [ISO/IEC 15939:2007]

NOTA: El término "medidas" se utiliza para hacer referencia conjuntamente a medidas de base, medidas derivadas, e indicadores.

[UNE-ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

medición

proceso para determinar un valor

NOTA: En el contexto de seguridad de la información, el proceso para determinar un valor requiere información sobre la eficacia de un sistema de gestión de seguridad de la información y sus correspondientes controles utilizando un método de medición, una función de medición, un modelo analítico, y unos criterios de decisión

[UNE-ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

función de medición

algoritmo o cálculo realizado para combinar dos o más medidas básicas
[ISO / IEC 15939:2007]

[UNE-ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

método de medición

secuencia lógica de operaciones, descritas genéricamente, utilizada en la cuantificación de un atributo con respecto a una escala especificada [ISO / IEC 15939:2007]

NOTA: El tipo de método de medición depende de la naturaleza de las operaciones utilizadas para cuantificar un atributo. Se pueden distinguir dos tipos:

-          Subjetivo: la cuantificación se basa en el juicio humano;

-          Objetivo: la cuantificación se basa en reglas numéricas.

[UNE-ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

resultados de las mediciones

uno o más indicadores y sus correspondientes interpretaciones que abordan una necesidad de información [UNE-ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

(en) measure

1. to find the size, quantity, etc. of sth in standard units

2. to be a particular size, length, amount, etc.

3. to judge the importance, value or effect of something.

(en) measure

variable to which a value is assigned as the result of measurement. [ISO-15939:2002]

(en) measurement

process of obtaining information about the effectiveness of ISMS, control objectives, and controls  using a measurement method, a measurement function, an analytical model, and decision criteria.

NOTE. Based on the definition in ISO/Guide 99999 International Vocabulary of Basic and General Terms in Metrology, 2004-09-21.

(en) measure

variable to which a value is assigned as the result of measurement [ISO/IEC 15939:2007]

NOTE. The term “measures” is used to refer collectively to base measures, derived measures, and indicators.

[ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

(en) measurement

process to determine a value

NOTE: In the context of information security the process of determining a value requires information about the effectiveness of an information security management system and its associated controls using a measurement method, a measurement function, an analytical model, and decision criteria

[ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

(en) measurement function

algorithm or calculation performed to combine two or more base measures [ISO/IEC 15939:2007]

[ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

(en) measurement method

logical sequence of operations, described generically, used in quantifying an attribute with respect to a specified scale [ISO/IEC 15939:2007]

NOTE. The type of measurement method depends on the nature of the operations used to quantify an attribute. Two types can be distinguished:

-          subjective: quantification involving human judgment;

-          objective: quantification based on numerical rules.

[ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

(en) measurement results

one or more indicators and their associated interpretations that address an information need [ISO/IEC 27000:2014]

(en) measurement scale

ordered set of values, continuous or discrete, or a set of categories to which the attribute is  mapped. [ISO-15939:2002]

(en) unit of measurement

scalar quantity, defined and adopted by convention, with which other quantities of the same kind  are compared in order to express their magnitudes.

(en) Performance Measure

A metric used to measure the extent to which a system, process, or activity fulfills its

associated performance objective.
