Security

Security refers to the measures and protocols put in place to protect individuals, organizations, and physical or digital assets from threats, harm, damage, or unauthorized access. It encompasses various aspects, including personal security (protection of individuals), information security (safeguarding data and systems), physical security (protecting buildings and facilities), and operational security (ensuring processes are secure and reliable). Security aims to prevent threats such as theft, cyberattacks, fraud, and violence, thereby ensuring a safe and secure environment for people and resources. In broader contexts, security can also refer to a sense of safety and assurance related to personal well-being, financial stability, and societal order.
