Security

Security refers to the measures and protocols put in place to protect people, property, information, and systems from harm, damage, theft, or unauthorized access. It encompasses various domains, including physical security (protection of buildings and facilities), cybersecurity (protection of digital information and systems), and personal security (safeguarding individuals against threats). Security aims to ensure safety, integrity, and confidentiality and to mitigate risks associated with potential threats. This can involve preventative measures, detection systems, response strategies, and ongoing risk assessments to adapt to emerging challenges. As a concept, security is essential in various contexts, including national security, corporate security, and community safety, influencing policies and procedures at multiple levels to maintain stability and trust.
