If the paragraph refers to the different areas that the security service should cover, this might work. Other possibility could be "domain", but it doesn't seem to be the context.

The Spanish is extremely wordy, and says almost nothing. I would condense it drastically (perhaps with a note to the customer explaining why), and say something like this:
"The security module is divided into five sub-modules, each carrying out a different function and each using state-of-the-art technology."
"The security module is divided into five sub-modules, each carrying out a different function and each using state-of-the-art technology."
Note from asker:

: I'd explain to the author that "dominios" is not a good lexical choice if he doesn't mean "domains"...

Domains of action
"Dominios" en el ambito de la informatica suele referirse a los "domains". Si el autor no quiere decir "domains", corre el riesgo de caer en malentendidos al emplear dicho vocablo. En este caso, "dominios" seria una opcion sumamente desafortunada para expresar "campos/ambitos/areas... de accion."...
