I am looking for a good book, Internet resource that can clearly explain these terms. Really, I would not like to read any Microsoft books or any book about windows or other operation systems. I really need the theoretical explanations.

I am appreciated to get any help.

    Separate from implementation the words are pretty generic. Just look them up the words in a dictionary or encyclopedia

That should be a good book. It is on information security, and has chapters on system security.

Look at at Rob Slade's reviews. His reviews are very good, because he doesn't hesitate to point out the defects in a book, and he explains what the book can bring to various audiences.

An excellent book covering security in general is Ross Anderson's. An older edition is available online. He covers a wide range of topics, so after you've read the relevant chapters, you may want to follow some bibliographic references.
