Security is the degree of protection against danger, damage, loss, and criminal activity.
Security as a form of protection are structures and processes that provide or improve
security as a condition. The Institute for Security and Open Methodologies (ISECOM) in
the OSSTMM 3 defines security as "a form of protection where a separation is created
between the assets and the threat. This includes but is not limited to the elimination of
either the asset or the threat. Security as a national condition was defined in a United
Nations study (1986)[citation needed], so that countries can develop and progress freely.

Security has to be compared to related concepts: safety, continuity, reliability. The key
difference between security and reliability is that security must take into account the
actions of people attempting to cause destruction.

Different scenarios also give rise to the context in which security is maintained:

• With respect to classified matter, the condition that prevents unauthorized persons
from having access to official information that is safeguarded in the interests of
national security.
• Measures taken by a military unit, an activity or installation to protect itself
against all acts designed to, or which may,

[edit] Perceived security compared to real security

Perception of security is sometimes poorly mapped to measureable objective security.

The perceived effectiveness of security measures is sometimes different from the actual
security provided by those measures. The presence of security protections may even be
taken for security itself. For example, two computer security programs could be
interfering with each other and even cancelling each other's effect, while the owner
believes s/he is getting double the protection.

Security theater is a critical term for deployment of measures primarily aimed at raising
subjective security in a population without a genuine or commensurate concern for the
effects of that measure on—and possibly decreasing—objective security. For example,
some consider the screening of airline passengers based on static databases to have been
Security Theater and Computer Assisted Passenger Prescreening System to have created
a decrease in objective security.

Perception of security can also increase objective security when it affects or deters
malicious behavior, as with visual signs of security protections, such as video
surveillance, alarm systems in a home, or an anti-theft system in a car such as a LoJack,
signs.

Since some intruders will decide not to attempt to break into such areas or vehicles, there
can actually be less damage to windows in addition to protection of valuable objects
inside. Without such advertisement, a car-thief might, for example, approach a car, break
the window, and then flee in response to an alarm being triggered. Either way, perhaps
the car itself and the objects inside aren't stolen, but with perceived security even the
windows of the car have a lower chance of being damaged, increasing the financial
security of its owner(s).
However, the non-profit, security research group, ISECOM, has determined that such
signs may actually increase the violence, daring, and desperation of an intruder [1] This
claim shows that perceived security works mostly on the provider and is not security at
all [2].

It is important, however, for signs advertising security not to give clues as to how to
subvert that security, for example in the case where a home burglar might be more likely
to break into a certain home if he or she is able to learn beforehand which company
makes its security system.

[edit] Categorising security

There is an immense literature on the analysis and categorisation of security. Part of the
reason for this is that, in most security systems, the "weakest link in the chain" is the
most important. The situation is asymmetric since the defender must cover all points of
attack while the attacker need only identify a single weak point upon which to
concentrate.

• Operations Security (OPSEC) is a complement to other "traditional" security
measures that evaluates the organization from an adversarial perspective.[3].

[edit] Security concepts

Certain concepts recur throughout different fields of security:

• Assurance - assurance is the level of guarantee that a security system will behave
as expected
 • Countermeasure - a countermeasure is a way to stop a threat from triggering a risk
event
• Defense in depth - never rely on one single security measure alone
• Exploit - a vulnerability that has been triggered by a threat - a risk of 1.0 (100%)
• Risk - a risk is a possible event which could cause a loss
• Threat - a threat is a method of triggering a risk event that is dangerous
• Vulnerability - a weakness in a target that can potentially be exploited by a threat

[edit] Security management in organizations

In the corporate world, various aspects of security were historically addressed separately
- notably by distinct and often noncommunicating departments for IT security, physical
security, and fraud prevention. Today there is a greater recognition of the interconnected
nature of security requirements, an approach variously known as holistic security, "all
hazards" management, and other terms.

Inciting factors in the convergence of security disciplines include the development of

digital video surveillance technologies (see Professional video over IP) and the
digitization and networking of physical control systems (see SCADA)[4][5]. Greater
interdisciplinary cooperation is further evidenced by the February 2005 creation of the
Alliance for Enterprise Security Risk Management, a joint venture including leading
associations in security (ASIS), information security (ISSA, the Information Systems
Security Association), and IT audit (ISACA, the Information Systems Audit and Control
Association)[6].

In 2007 the International Organisation for Standardization (ISO) released ISO 28000 -
Security Management Systems for the supply chain. Although the title supply chain is
included, this Standard specifies the requirements for a security management system,
including those aspects critical to security assurance for any organisation or enterprise
wishing to management the security of the organisation and its activities. ISO 28000 is
the foremost risk based security system and is suitable for managing both public and
private regulatory security, customs and industry based security schemes and
requirements.
